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."

This is really starting to get very exciting!! Looking forward to meeting you ladies. Question? Is it just for the Moms or also our other guest who are coming for graduation?

We should be there around 2:30. So let me know if you need help with anything.
There will be 4 adults and my grandson.
I like the idea of all of us wearing a navy blue shirt with a white ribbon. That gives us all the option of dressing it up some. I would rather we all look a little more classier than t-shirts. Something that the other groups are not doing. WE MUST STAND OUT! :) ~~~~~just my opinion, but will go along with the majority~~~~~

I am really looking forward to meeting everyone. We are all in the same boat(no pun intended). Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. We are getting to Waukegan on the evening of the 23rd, so I can help with whatever needs doing.
