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."

Yes! we are all excited about the MNG at Mare Island. I think wine would go well with the Strombolini as well. Strombolini is perfect "Football Watching Food!"
Hope all mom's had a wonderful "Mother's Day!"

Sorry to be AWOL for so long. Lots has happened the last few months. Ed and I will try to attend, but also hope to fly Space A to Hawaii around that time, to see our sailor before he "ships out". If a last minute RSVP is okay, we are in!

Bea, the MNG will not be the same without you and John. So, rest up and be there with bells on.
