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."

Heads at Ease,
I would like to say thank you for the pillow case that you sent to USS Princeton, they were a much appreciated and totally unexpected. I lead a division of about 24 young men and woman and there was a lot of excitement in picking the case they wanted. Again thank you for the gift.
Respectfully,
OS1 Erik
