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."

Hi Mary, I'm planning to be there if all the details get worked out for me. I'm still at my Mom's home right now...just helping her deal with official paperwork etc after Dad's death last Sunday. Count on me being there unless I notify you that plans have changed....just me, no one else along for the ride. Thanks. BJames

Chris, I do have your RSVP. I hope your mom does decide to join us - what great history she has. MCPON West has alot of knowledge of our IA program and he may be able to ease her concerns...or not.

I accepted on the events page...here.
Myself plus one
I'm very excited. I may bring my mother who is the sister of John Jones who was Sailor of the Quarter? and had lunch with Eisenhower and was special op. and her other brother was a Green Beret and was at the Battle of the Bulge. She was not very happy about my son joining and even more upset when he went "the Sand Box'. She said he's so like her brother Johnny she's concerned that he will follow in his boots steps. I hope she's able to come, he may put a better light on things for her.

We are definitely coming and will have three. Also, I live an hour from Chattanooga on I-75, so if anyone is coming from a long way, you are welcome to stay with us. Allergy warning: we have two indoor dogs and one indoor cat.

I am going to try and make it - I would have to drive down then come home that night! 1 maybe 2 - I would like to know dress code as well, I guess where the dinner is held would dictate dress.

Myself and two guests will attend and what is the dress for that evening?
Total: 3
