OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Lola how wonderful and proud you must feel!! My daughter said she was so happy to be finished with P-days. She made no mention of all the letters we have been sending, I guess they haven't received any of them yet. Did your daughter mention anything about mail?
