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."

We celebrated Chanukah on the 20th had her shipmates over and family it was so nice. Then had them all back Xmas eve and made them all stay in my tiny apartment but it was better than waking up in the barracks. My house has been bustling with activity and I love sharing it with family and friends
