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 cogurr, I have you down for 4 people including yourself. Look forward to seeing you once again. Military is Military.
I was working out at the gym and a Marine Sargent walked by and I looked up and said: "Thank you for your service!" He replied: "Thank you sir!" Made us both feel good.

cogurr, thanks for the offer of the canopy. I am going to Petaluma to check out the parking today. Used Mapquest, pretty straight forward directions. Even I can find it. :>)
Will let you know if mean needs the canopy.

Meam, We have a 10 x 10 pop-up canopy. Let me know if you would like us to bring it, Monday.

Meam will go through the pictures she has received. Those who have sent them in I will contact to the affirmative. Those who have not sent them in I will ask them to ge the pictures ASAP.
The last day to RSVP is 8 Nov 2013. This will give mean a chance to plan on how many people to expect.
meam will post a menu that will be provided. Those with special needs will be taken into consideration. If possible you might have to bring the special items if they do not appear on the menu list. We will figure out something. It will be a fun day.
Get there early so you can park and even walk around town to see what is going on. This is a small town parade. Family style.

Good Morning JKHarris , thanks for the confirmation. I have not received confirmation from meam on the pictures. Busy lady. I will email her and ask if we need to confirm the receipt of pictures.
Hold the $20 until the day of the MNG. This should turn out to be the best MNG ever.
Look forward to meeting you in person.

Good morning I sent my daughters picture to Means several weeks ago should I follow up to make sure she received it? Should I send the $20 now?
