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."

Comment by Sandy H on April 11, 2010 at 12:18am: I just wanted to say thank you to Marsha and Monica for the wonderful meet and greet today at Pizza Chicago. My husband and I enjoyed meeting everyone and we had a great time. We are going to try to attend more outings in the future. Thank you Bunker Bee for knowing all the information I didn't know. I appreciated all your help and look forward to the tutorial phone call. Take care, everyone and we hope to see all of you soon.

Comment by BunkerQB on April 10, 2010 at 9:42am: DIRECTIONS TO PIZZA CHICAGO.
From East Bay (Manteca).
Take 580 west, to 680 South. Continue on 680 which become 280 (looping around and going more east/west). Take 87 Guadalupe Expressway (north - you are going back north just a bit), Take Santa Clara Street Exit, right turn. Go about 4 blocks, right turn on San Pedro St. Go two blocks to W. San Fernando. Pizza Chicago is right on the corner of W. San Fernando and San Pedro. There is a sign at the back of building. Can't miss it. Looks like plenty of street parking

If you are coming from 280 north or south, just skip the first part of the above instructions. Go from 280 to 87, etc.

See you all later. Address is 155 W. San Fernando St 408 283-9400

Comment by BunkerQB on April 9, 2010 at 1:27am: Hannah, please come! Janis, sorry you had to drop out. :( Everybody else, we'll catch you next time. In March I met Noe (+husband and son - I want that little guy), Cindy Lou + family and rockymom + hubby.
