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."

Comment by Marty Mc on May 15, 2010 at 10:01pm: The OB who delivered my youngest was his older brother's baseball coach... H

Comment by Kim (Ethan's Mom) on May 15, 2010 at 9:19pm: No Linda! He is a DO and delivered 2 of my kids. That would've been a good one.

Comment by Kim (Ethan's Mom) on May 15, 2010 at 8:18pm: My husband once had a doctor named Butcher. He was ant internist. haha
My doctor's name is Parrott!

Comment by Marty Mc on May 15, 2010 at 7:28pm: I just rechecked my son's email this morning it had a wink sign... ;-)
when he told me it was his birthday.... (coming up...)

Comment by Marty Mc on May 15, 2010 at 7:09pm: Dolly what web cam site are you on?

Comment by Marty Mc on May 15, 2010 at 7:04pm: Our delivery room had TVs so you could watch something in case you got bored or something... We were watching "Dumb & Dumber" until I made my husband change it...it was the scene where he (the tall blond guy) is in the bathroom, having MAJOR problems. "OK, no more of this stuff," I said.

Comment by Marty Mc on May 15, 2010 at 12:29pm: Mornin' ladies. I see you all stay up a lot later than I do! But this morning I awoke to an email from my son announcing his birthday & the gummy bear song from you all! You can tell I don't have toddlers in the house anymore, as I'd never seen/heard gb. The yellow u-trou is a bit much...but it was definitely forwardable to cheer up my brother off on a sales trip away from his little kids.

I had a blast being pregnant & delivering, you will too Stephanie. Try to write down all the funny things so you can share them with your husband... there are always funny things in situations like this!

Comment by Sue-Pillowcase lady on May 15, 2010 at 12:02am: do you ever wonder who makes this stuff up? I have seen that car in Tucson, haha. but I don't know if I can ever eat a gummy bear again after watching the green guy wiggle his booty!

Lisa, the airwing support crew doesn't go off early. they have to pack up the equipment.

I love friend okra. tried to cook it fresh once-not again! I dropped a piece on my tile floor and the piece was like glue. took a long time to get it up.

so it's critter night. here's one from my back yard:

does anyone know what this is?

love the bear photos. I am wiped out, so am going to go put my head at ease.
my son's dog disappeared on Tuesday, but PTL, he was found today!

Comment by Kim (Ethan's Mom) on May 13, 2010 at 5:56am: You ladies always put a smile on my face. lol The young man is reminding me of the talking dog on the movie 'UP' I love that movie and the dog saying 'squirrel' was just the funniest ever.

It is storming here this morning. Today is my Friday. woot woot I have a young man that went to school with my sailor helping right now since he his finals are over. At least I get to talk about my sailor if not to him.

You ladies have a wonderful blessed day!
