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."

Good morning/afternoon everyone! We are under six months until my son leaves Hawaii. I'll be so happy to have him back on the East Coast and in the same time zone when his tour is done. It has been a really great duty station, minus the deployment, but it is paradise and if it hadn't been for him getting stationed there, I'm not sure we would have ever made the trip. Now I can't wait to go back!

This book was recommended to me by a friend & when i went to look up the reviews, they were all A+. Can't wait to get the book. The military moms that did write reviews, all said, they couldn't put the book down & were able to relate to so many things in it. Enjoy & Happy Mother's Day!
