JackO Lewis is one of the subject matter experts that participated in the "what works in OPSEC" campaign, and has a great deal of advice for the new OPSEC professional. Says Lewis on OPSEC experiences: "...When we finished the SAC commanding general got on the stage and started yelling at them for talking over non-secure phones, talking in the BX and commissary, the O and NCO clubs on base, and in general in the surrounding town when talking to their neighbors. He explained that the briefing they had just received came from "spies" that had no pre- knowledge of the exercise and had gotten all that information from their big mouths and sloppy OPSEC! You could have heard a pin drop in that theater!"
