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."

Charlotte, i'm so sorry to hear your Momma has passed. Hugs and prayers to you and your family. So glad the Red Cross was able to get Jason home.
Gail, congrats to Eric and Lauren. Hawaii is still on my bucket list.
Terry, I hope Aaron heals completely and gets to hang onto his Navy career for as long as he wants to be in. I know your help was a blessing to them.
Scott is approaching his first wedding anniversary. I was able to visit them in Maine in September and they plan to be home around Christmas. I sure enjoyed my grandson's hugs. Our daughter is pregnant and due just before Christmas. I'm thankful they live less than 30 miles away so I can see the baby often.
Take care everyone.

Terry, I'll be praying for Aaron's back to heal and that treatment will help keep him fit for service. I've heard many people say to avoid back surgery if at all possible. Maybe since he's had surgery on that area once, treatment will help this time. I don't know if this condition applies, but there is a new treatment, a "filler" for discs. Whatever the solution, God knows his needs and I'm glad to join you in prayer.
So glad you enjoyed Aaron and his family for a week! I keep looking for a week I can go out to Maine to visit Scott and his family. I hope to fly this time.

Hi everyone! I can't believe that I haven't checked in in so long! I love the photos - Lorraine - beautiful wedding photos! I hope that Lanie is making friends. Little Charlotte is adorable!
Charlotte - sounds like everyone is doing well in your family - are you staying healthy?
Gail - I bet you are getting excited for HI! I'm glad that you and Eric's girlfriend are getting to know each other....
My Aaron is just finishing up year 2 at Oregon State..... one more year to go! I just got back from visiting him - I went over at the last minute, we got a letter from his CO inviting us to the Spring Awards ceremony.. I wasn't going to go since finances are still pretty tight - but I couldn't stand it so Bob said to go! so I did!! I'll add some photos. Aaron was awarded a scholarship for overall strong performance - he has had good year! Last quarter he got student of the quarter for the ROTC unit, Officer Candidates usually do not get this recognition, but his superior fought for him saying that he deserved it. I am really glad that I went - it was a jammed packed 2 days, met lots of his friends, his girlfriends mom, other moms, 3 soccer games, tour of the nuclear reactor, trip out to the ocean phew I need a few days to recover!
