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."

So happy for you AMBurg.  Just can't imagine.  Haven't seen my since his wedding in November and it bums me out.  Were supposed to go for Easter but the Navy has different plans for him so he won't be around.  :( Enjoy every minute you have.  The picture looks like he is so very happy to be home.

You too AMBurg60!  I can't imagine going that long without seeing my Sailors, but fear with my son heading to a sub that it's bound to happen.

lol the picture reminds me of the deer in the woods behind my house this morning. Well next week calls for a wintery mix instead of snow, so I guess that's progress. Not quite cold enough for snow.
