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."

Sharon, your are so close. I am in Merced. We should get together when I return.
I had not seen my son in a year and four days was not enough. Thankfully he is good about calling.

I am. On a road trip for the summer. Got to go down to Mississippi to see my son's sub commissioned on June 2nd. What a fantastic ceremony. Spent four wonderful days with my son going out to eat, touring his boat and meeting his friends, and just sitting by the pool.
How are you?

Terri....We get together whenever any of the mom's just feel like they need a hug. You are more than welcome to join us. You can always lurk over on the Northern Ca group.

Would love to meet but it's my husband's birthday. I could use some time with moms who understand how it feels to have your child gone and not be able to talk to them for weeks.
Have fun!

Hi Gen, we are not very good about communicating on this sight. My son's submarine is doing there sea trials. We will see him and the sub soon when it is commissioned. We should be able to get a tour.
All is well. How are you?

Just a quick note to say, hope all is well with everyone and that all of your sailors are safe.
