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."

Cindy-last year my husband's doctor told him "one more ear infection and it's tubes for you!" i would sooooo love to meet your "mature" drivers...i bet they are a HOOT!
-

AMEN!!! i am so thankfully he got it looked at immediately!!! he didn't know that babies get tubes in their ears and after he realized that he was NOT having major ear surgery (if recommended) he was much more relaxed about the idea. honestly i had to stifle a chuckle when i realized that he really didn't know that tubes in the ear are quite common.

good morning my girlies!!
CC you are welcome...just happened to have had that site bookmarked : )
Cindy!! HOOYAH for Paul!!!! talked to my Sailor Son the other day and he's still in the "shop". he was working on "F18 parts" and he was very happy about it!!
Sailor Son called yesterday after we went to "Medical". woke up yesterday with severe pain on one side of his face and his ear was hurting really bad. the doctor took a look inside his ear and said "not happy in there" and he is to see another doctor for a consultation on a tube. he never fully recovered from the pneumonia in BC. so my kid who only had 1 year infection in his life BEFORE he went into the Navy might be needing a tube....how weird is that????

Connie you are quick Lady!! I had to find it on the info I had and I was on my phone, the battery was dying so you saved me!! Thanks! We also found out from SS that Hank is eligible for unemployment too. we are still going through some of the hoops but we know he will receive a pmt in July. Not sure if the unemployment is worth it or will help at all. The hardest part for me was going through all of the medigap and medicare insurance stuff!!! Start looking into plans available in your area at least 90 days before you sign up!! I am waiting for Hanks ID 3 so I can finish and send those in for approval!
