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."

Haha. Nope sounds like are kids are very similar in nature. Mine to has that smarta*** mouth too. Gotta love them though. My Mom tells me she is just a reflection of me at that age. I told her no way I was an angel.

Funny, my mother also said the same thing. But you know I really miss that smart A** mouth. I thought I would never say that and I will never tell her that but I would not trade her for anything, I am so proud of her, as I know you are of your SR

LOL...mine too.  I've always told her that God forgot to give her the brain to mouth filter.  She is very blunt & honest almost to a fault.  She has a very big heart though & has always had a problem saying no when someone asked her to do something. 

It is so funny I feel that our SR could be related. I sure hope they have become friends as much as they sound the same.

I am hoping for same thing!
The letters I've been getting also say that the girls are having one hell of a time coming together as a unit. They have even had meetings on teamwork. Praying they pull it together. Sounds like they all have experience working in a group setting. Come on girls!

Is your SR 09/015?

It seems that way doesn't it.  I'm sure they'll pull it together!

Yes 09/15

What is going on with or girls. I pray that they pull it together, We have strong SR so I have the faith, they will do what they need to do.

Me too Kimmy.  I'm sure they will, with all the team players out there!! 

Our SR is pretty strong also, she is determined to get out of bc, go to sea & out rank her brother!!  LOL. He says that he won't salute her though if she ever does out rank him, he will be very proud of her but he won't salute her.  He was hoping to be able to go to PIR, but he will be underwater somewhere.

Good Morning Ladies!!  In 14 days I will be leaving for Great Lakes.  My dad is going to be able to make the trip so we are going to leave a day earlier than planned so we can stop & spend the night.  My 3month old grandson is also going with us so I'm sure the trip is going to include several stops for feedings & such!!  I am so excited!!!
