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."

So happy for all of us and of course relieved. Such a proud moment!! I too look forward to meeting all of you.
I did tell my sailor about the website and that I though one of the moms might be the mom of the young girl who left with him that day and he said it is. So Alexandrasmom and I did briefly meet the day we left our sailors at the recruiters office. I had a feeling just needed him to confirm. -

My Sailor is in Division 002. We are going to Sarges Meet & Greet. I am making name tags for us so we will be readily identified. Going to post picture of tag so other Sailor Moms can find us. Can't wait to meet you Ladies. This site has been so helpful & encouraging to have other hand- wringing, stressed out, crying for no reason Moms that I can relate to ! LOL

Texas mom,
I got light weight wooden Anchors [ about 3" tall ] , Gold stick on letters, Red, White & blue ribbons for our tags, Then to Michael's Arts & Crafts & Hobby Lobby for the hotel door & meet & greet table.
I don't know when I'm going to do all these crafty things - but I'm going to try to get it all done!

I have been looking EVERYWHERE for a wooden Anchor (like 18" size) to make for the hotel room door and can't find one. I have zero ideas for a banner so looks like I'll have a plain door :0(
