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."

that would be incredible Gail! Would Eric be an instructor? Congrats to Eric on the marriage! lots of changes going on.
We're on baby watch as the due date of the 20th approaches. Scott will be home on the 27th, Lanie & Kale are coming before Christmas. Scott made First Class earlier this month. He had signed up for 3 more years so he's in until 2018.
Good to hear from you Carol Aileen. Congrats to Aaron.
Merry Christmas to all of you.
Hi Everyone! it has been a while since I've checked in here!
Charlotte, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom. Hugs and Prayers sent to you.
Terry - I hope that Aaron heals up perfectly! How frustrating for him!
Gail - Congrats on the engagement! How romantic :)
Tina - that does sound like a fun adventure for Guy - How Is he liking it so far?
Lorraine, it sounds like a joyful Christmas will be had :) enjoy the grandbabies!
My Aaron is doing well, getting antsy for school to be over with. He will graduate in June and be commissioned that same weekend! He will then go back to Charleston to Power school - I've been told it could be a 6 month wait though. He came home for a quick visit over Thanksgiving, and will be home for a longer visit this Christmas. I'm going to enjoy it as much as I can since it may be the last time he is home for Christmas for a while!
Aaron has been enjoying the "College" life, he took 4 weeks off over the summer and toured around Ireland, Scotland and England. He had a fun time, enjoyed every bit of it I think! But has been hitting the books hard ever since!
I hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas season!
