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."

I see mention of the FB page for this group but I can't locate it - can someone post the link to the page? Thanks so much!
PS - we got a call from our SR yesterday - it was a quick call and we were not in cell range so he left a message - he said he will be calling Tuesday about the same time or within an hour before or after that time so make sure to have the phone handy. He said all is good and he sounded good.
