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."

Jking-of course your daughter can come! the more the merrier. daughters, husbands, anybody. my 14 or 15 yr old daughters usually one comes but I'll be flying solo tomorrow as they both have plans. Einsteins is very good to us. look forward to meeting you. I forgot whom we're 'adopting' this month. Shirley can fill you in tomorrow. I'm not so sure about fresh baked cookies, but ask. usually has to be packaged things and if you find a way to send cookies without them crumbling I wanna know. it never works for me. looking forward to meeting you!

I got the boxes (10) from post office (they dont look too big ;( )forms, labels, and tape - do we pack our own stuff or share what we bring? I don't care, just curious so I know what to do and buy the right amounts, etc. Diane, you'd better come, it's hard to type with fingers crossed!!

I got the clear packing tape (6 rolls so should be enough!) and I will get more boxes, labels, custom forms and priority tape.
