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."

don't want him to go to afganistan linda - do you think I can send a note to his command on "our" behalf?
Nick's last weekend home - he flies out on Wednesday. We have a picnic scheduled with all the GA moms tomorrow and then......Army boy arrives...he is bringing the engagement ring! I will have 2 nicks in the house and a happy daughter! Keep you posted.

Hi all! Ohh Angie...hoping #2 is back to normal now. If you would like us to send a card of support to him - pm his address to me.
We just returned from a week at HHI with both of our kids and suspect it will be a long time before we vacation as a family again. Nick is still on leave but will be heading out next week to report to his first ship.
