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 will look up directions right now, so that I know where I am going this time! I might see if my daughter can put me up in Golden Friday night so I won't have to drive from Broomfield...

Fireside Books and Coffee was the nicest place we have met so far, I thought! Easy to get to, even for me! Come join us next month (If we can fit in a Saturday Coffee before the Holidays.)

It was good talking to you ladies today. Thank God it wasn't too Estrogen Enriched
Per the talk about Sea/Shore rotation. Here is the latest Navy message which was released on July 11th...
http://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-npc/reference/messages/Documents/...
Per the talk about Navy ratings crossing into civilian jobs go here:
Per the ratings and which colleges give you credits go here:
https://www.navycollege.navy.mil/ratings.cfm
Per a discription of what each rating does: (this is my website)
http://www.navydep.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=36
Per the lady (I forgot your name) that I was talking to privately after our coffee:
I wanted to return your picture.
Your son will not be able to join since the tattoo's on his forehead would be showing in his class "A" uniform. Anything on the face and neck that show are not waiver-able. So the rest of this is a moot point, but wanted to share in case he decides to get the tattoo's removed....
The body piercing (the knifes through the nose) are not allowed. If he changed them to less deadly object, such as candles, then the Navy could waive that portion.
The ear guages (the big plugs where a normal earring would go) is waiver-able too. He would have to remove them duty normal duty hours.
Per the last item, I will have to provide a link, since I can't talk about "that" item since this is a public forum, so here's a link that has my answer to that question. >>>
SEE ATTACHED LINK..... Here >>>
Again, here is your picture back....

Craig, Thanks for the info yesterday and posting on here. It is so helpful. I had a great time and I think from what I heard so did everyone else. I hope we all can meet at this place again. Also, the navycool page will not load. It keeps coming up "error...too long to load". Patricia
