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."

What hotel is everybody staying at?

Thought it might be nice for everybody to say where they are staying for PIR as a means of knowing who will be in the same place, taking the shuttles, carpooling, etc. and maybe even getting together…Continue

Cat - That sounds fabulous!  Cant say I have ever eat seafood at a Mexican place, but I'm willing to try anything once! LOL!

Joyceann - I can eat my share and somebody elses, but the boys still outdo me, hands down.

Comment by joyceann on January 25, 2011 at 4:46pm
Sandy, I'm the only one in the family who really likes them.  Everyone else is always done eating and I am still cracking away!  It's like an addiction, sometimes I give up though after they complain a lot.   MMMMMMM   I love them.

Sandy, Taqueria Toluca's (Mexican Rest) has this enormous dish to feed the whold family for 50 bucks. It comes out on this big dish with all kinds of seafood and crab legs. I wanted to get it but but everyone else wanted other things. Could not eat it all by myself. Their # is 847-244-7851
Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on January 25, 2011 at 4:38pm

Joyceann - My husband (sons stepdad) and my son love to eat crablegs!  Any time those two have crablegs together its a mess.  They try to outdo each other.  320 lbs versus 200 lbs.  The legs are piled high and the shells are piled higher.  Atleast 3 foot around the table is shameful!

Its on our "to-do" list!

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on January 25, 2011 at 4:38pm
Bmansmommie -any news to report?  You're leaving us in the dark here???  There are many inquiring minds wanting to know to keep from wandering aimlessly between the kitchen and the bathroom !!!!
Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on January 25, 2011 at 4:32pm
Penny - that was on my list too.  BS21 everyone pass/fail? Score? Leave? Captains Cup, best friend, letters & pic and what do you want me to bring to you.  (My Sailor will give me all his letters to take back home so he does not have to throw away or take to A school)
Comment by joyceann on January 25, 2011 at 4:32pm
Ohhh crab legs........wait...what happened???  Knock it off Sandy, I'm trying to stay focused and not trip on my lip here!!!  :)
Comment by Denise on January 25, 2011 at 4:28pm
My questions:  Did entire division pass? What was division score? Did the swimmers pass? Any word on overnight liberty?
Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on January 25, 2011 at 4:27pm

Sandy, what kind of questions did you have?  My mind is BLANK!!  I am just curious as to what score they got.

Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on January 25, 2011 at 4:27pm
Does the windy city have seafood?  My boy wants crab legs~
