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."

Welcome Blair and congratulations to your son. I hope he asks someone where the galley is or it could be an expensive week for him!!!
Nancy, I was watching the news this morning and they had referred to a Navy ship being available for the efforts but they never said which one. I bet your son is pretty excited about this mission - hopefully it won't get too bad but it's good to know our Navy is there and ready to help!

Marsher,
Whiskey is what I keep hearing is the abbreviation for the Wisconsin. The Barracks.

WEll, Gustav is supposed to stall over deep east tx for 4 days and rain & rain with 40-60 MPH winds. Wish I could remember what MPH winds it was that Rita was when it got here and did so much havoc. Then I'd have a comparison.

Man, traffic is so constant, I cannot get out of my driveway, LOL! So much for the super corridor for evacuating!
By the way, Mary or anyone, what is spaa?
Is that Radar 2 or doppler or something?

Jackie, on the Florida group, there are 6 or so ladies from Spring Hill that meet I think.
Millye, PM and have a great time.
Lynndear, Brenda is evacuating, we and our Navy friends in Zavalla/Woodville are preparing in case we have to, but Jorge has to actually go to Beaumont to be part of the aid. When are you leaving?

Marsher, I always get the dreaded "red shield" saying there is a problem with this website too, but I just click "Go to this website anyway - not recommended"
There's some reason for it, but I believe a Navy site would not harm my computer... (fingers crossed.)

Millye - enjoy your weekend with Claire, how wonderful for all of you that you have this weekend together.
Just want to wish everyone a happy and safe Labor Day weekend, I do hope everyone in the path of Gustva is safe in the days ahead.

Oh Marsher, you were talking about the "real" Mustin! I thought it was an article about their building! Oh well, I like Navy history and facts!

I found it - Page 5 . Home - go to Newsroom, GL Bulletin. Page 5. OK, so I'm slow...but I'm a late bloomer!

So I went to Newsroom, but don't see a current week icon. Help Me Mustin moms!
