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."

They have a restraunt, but don't any infor posted, but we could either meet for early lunch and then the garden or do the graden then dinner.

Jeannie,
I've decided to drive myself. My boys are coming home from camping all week on Saturday and I'm not quite sure when. (anytime between 1pm and 3pm) and I want to be able to get up and leave to get them from the drop off point. They are both in Boy Scouts and have been at camp for the past week and will need a ride home from the church where they have their meetings. I don't want to miss them or to make you and Media Mom leave before you are ready. I'll see you there!!!

I would like to go if you don't mind driving. KellyAnn is home but she is having a spa day so I am free. I live 1 block off of Route 56 (butterfield road) and Route 31. Let me know what time.

Dianne, I can't wait to meet you, I was reading your page and see your daughter is a Nuke in Goose Creek, that is where my son is as well so we will have a lot to talk about. See you Saturday!

Wow, Jeannie, small world. My brother is retired navy and still lives near Norfolk, VA, where he was stationed for many years. He will be coming to Goose Creek for my sons Power School graduation in a couple weeks, along with my folks. We will have quite a crowd cheering him on.
