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."

Who of us are planning to be at the M&G that the Ramada Inn hosts (ours is Thursday, Feb 3)?
Some info I have found:
The Ramada does the M&G regardless, they are not connected with the Navy, they just do it as a service.
02/03/2011 from 6-8pm in the bar. Heavy appetizers are served. Many PIR groups call and ask to move it to another room...the bar gets dark and loud after a while. Also, many PIR groups go to the Ramada then plan to meet elsewhere for dinner…Anastasias, Flannigans.I am so looking forward to meeting all! Less than 4 weeks away!!! Woohoo!!!

Okay gals ... I FINALLY booked my flights! That just made me even MORE excited! Now, I just need to nail down the hotel and rental car arrangements... ;o)

what airline did you book with Sherry? I started to pack a few clothing items for my son so he can be casual in the hotel
room. Sweat pants and tshirts...lol. I am getting so excited now. Still no letter tho :-(

I started getting things together that I know my girl would want me to bring with me. I also thought to bring some sweats for her for the hotel room, but I'm afraid all of hers are going to be way too big for her now! I hear she has lost so much weight (and she was already pretty tiny when she left!). Hang in there ... you'll get your letter this week! (Maybe even two!) ;o)

I bet my son has lost tons of weight too. I might have to buy a pair of pants for him. I'll take a stab at it. I bet he looks like a real string bean now. Hopefully more muscle, besides that giant brain he's carting around.....lol
