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."

Hi, We are staying at the Navy Lodge and have already sent an RSVP for Sarge's meet and greet. I am also keeping my phone close to my side for that first call. We did get two more letters from Dan today, he said Div 333 has been loud and they had IT after they had already had pt. He said they had 6 hrs liberty on Sunday and he was able to go to church. The letters keep him going, so I am off to write another one. See you at the Lodge.
