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."

Hello everyone,
It was great at the meet n greet. Wish we would have had more time.
Was in a funk when I got home on Monday night. I hated saying goodbye.

Glad to be back on N4M
Have a good day
Oh..and...I thought the Ramada was just fine. It felt like visiting my Grandmothers house in the country. The staff was great too. I liked the feel of the place =) and it was clean.

we got our first phone call from her cell phone last night. all though he had bad news about her boyfriend (cheating and doing drugs) it was still nice to hear she is happy with what she is doing. one less wait of her back. know she can just think about herself and do whatever she wants with her life and not bother with a boy. :). her A school is on hold for a month and then she has a week A school then home for 2 weeks. then out to her ship. you go girl.
