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."

Ladies, those of you attending tomorrow's DEP Families and Navy Moms Potluck here in Tucson: I drove out to the Reserve Center, south on Wilmot, south of Golf Links and about 100 feet from the Wilmot gate going into DM, turn LEFT! Light brown angular building with light trim. As you enter the parking lot, you'll notice the Navy anchors!! GO NAVY! We will be inside, don't let the 'cool' weather keep you away. Start at 1pm - 4pm and ALL ARE WELCOME!! Bring a dish according to your name (see event) or bring what you can, just bring something and come! Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Rhoda: I hope you can talk your Sailor into attending along with his wife and new baby!!

Mel: Gosh, thanks for the offer....but, Cory is arriving in Phoenix Friday (the night before!) so I'll be heading home shortly after the picnic to spend some time with my sailor. I'll see you Saturday!!!

Hi Ladies! I did confirm with Scott that the Reserve Center is NOT on base. We did order a HUGE sheet cake with the Navy emblem. I suggest you "out of towners" bring something really easy to transport, like bread/rolls/etc. All of you are more than welcome to stay overnight at my house, plus we could get some more visiting time in after the potluck. Or even if you just want to gather for a couple hours, anything will work for me! Gabrielle Giffords will also be a guest speaker.

Hi Melissa and my other Tucson NFM friends!
Yes, I plan on coming to the Family Potluck. I hope that my Sailor will be there too. He's going to be home for two weeks starting the 13th.
If I'm lucky my daughter Sylvia, and TJ's GF and new baby will attend also!
