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."

Okay fellers....
I'll kick it off.
Warning Ladies! This is a high testosterone zone. If this was our Clubhouse, for sure we would have one of those "NO GIRLS ALLOWED" signs nailed to the tree trunk, but we recognize that we are but guests in "your" house, so you are free to pop in and say hello anytime of the day or night. In fact, you are encouraged to pop in... any time of the day or night.
No membership required.
It's like going to vote--- you don't even have to show ID. No one will ask if you have chest hairs or insist on seeing your Man Card.
But calling all Cave Men....
This is the place to post pics of your Man Cave.
Show 'em, if you got 'em.
(aka-- I'll show you mine, if you show me yours)

Cool...
You have a lot of baseball gear... I guess I'm going to have to start some kind of Navy motif inside now.
I'll post some pics of the interior as it is now.
I have a bit of a Firehouse theme going... complete with a brass fire pole from the bunkhouse up top to the play room below. No.... it's NOT a stripper pole!
Dang I am jealous...I so wish we had a Man Cave for my Hubby! NOT because I want to send him there but because he deserves one! These are great!
Hmmmmm...the wheels are whirring (rusty but whirring!)...going to have to figure out a way!
We've had great times in ours... It's been a hang out for my boys and their friends. Believe it or not, it started as a tool shed! Well, then when we started drawing up the plans, the project took on a whole life of it's own and well....?
It has a little bunkhouse for their sleep-overs up top, and a pass-through portal to the fire pole for gaming below. We've only just started decking it out, and now we have a need for some Navy gear. I'll have to try to find an Act of Valor poster or something like that to begin.
LOL! Yeah sure! Unless you are secretly Batman, that's a stripper pole.
