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."

Thank you Elaine. Steve's mom (Shell) is our graphic genius, but is calendar impaired. I also just got a Happy New Year note from her. Where in the world have you been? I remember you from April.

I've been in and out! Work got kind of crazy and my 15 yr old daughter broke up with her b/f of 7 mos. For her it's the end of the world....lol. So I've been consoling her.
I was able to go to GL to see Brian over Memorial Day weekend. He was on hold since his PIR on 3/7, but now he's in Meridian Miss after changing rates (which is funny, b/c now he's doing what he originally wanted to do but was told there were no openings). He left Chicago on 6/4.
I see that I've been missing out on all the fun....dang it....I hate it when that happens.

Right back at ya!!!!
I'm not good with the graphics.....in fact I needed help from my daughter when I got this new laptop! LOL

Elaine it was the funniest darn night I think we ever had here on N4M 's ....... I believe we met Kimberly that night ?
-

Yes, that was the night I met Kimberly. And Joyce of course had explained to someone how to wish someone would have a good day. I learned that night how important graphics are.

LOL what a hoot that was my dear ........ Yes I belive that graphics was just staring to be the *in* thing then also :)
