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."

Beth Congrats!!! Shawn won SAilor of Quarter, Then Sailor of the year, consider it an OUTSTANDING HONOR..he should also pull some new "ribbons" for that one!!!! and they also get points to their next testing for "upping in rank" so its AWESOME...KUDOS.
Jody, have NO clue what you are asking? LOL
T-glad to see you checking in! Hope you are feeling "better"!
I got an email from T-trouble with an update, but didn't know whether to share! I will put it here, cause now that I think of it, I think we all should be praying for T and Jen......
Diane, I am doing good, I have not had to have oxygen for three weeks now., the home health care is done no more dressing changes. I'm still sore from surgery and numb from them cutting the nerves, I'm not allowed to lift over 10lbs, 5lbs on each side. I have been trying not to overdue it, but when I do, I get reminded when I get winded. On February 25th I go back to the hospital and have a port put in to start Chemo in March. I have four months of Chemo to do that I know of right now. And after that radiation, so if I get to come to the next get together, it will all depend on how I am feeling, and I won't beallowed around anyone who is sick, while doing my Chemo.
