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."

Thanks, Pat. We have already been collecting items. I felt so lost not being able to log in to Navy for Moms. Both of my sailors are now out and in college but I still feel so connected to all of you. I don't have Facebook so I am so glad to be able to communicate with everyone again. Keeping all our military in our prayers.
