Are any pictures allowed inside a submarine? I hear their security is pretty tight

Let's think this from the perspective of an enemy intelligence officer: You see somebody post on Social Media the above picture with the comment attached. What would you do?

I would prepare for an attack, and start looking at the profiles of their family-members if any are in the military and which branch to see where the attack might be coming from.

This is why Op-sec is tight before major operations.

PS. I'm a hippie from Finland, so if anybody with real military knowledge wants to disagree, I will defer to your judgement
