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."

I'm really a hard core Packer fan (original Wisconsinite), BUT I will support the Cardinals! Cause I adopted AZ 33 years ago.
And I am a big fan of Kurt Warner also. I'm sorry that you won't be able to make it Vicki.

Oh Laura, I'm crushed......lol

Oh Valerie, I hear ya! My son is the same way. I'm doing this for him. He loves football and yes, you would have heard him cheering up your way too!!
Sailor son will be happy to know that Mama is getting involved in the Superbowl.
His first question will be: How much are you betting, Mom??? And did you get any POINTS???? lol
