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."

My oldest son is in Nas Jacksonville. But the area is nice. We live in Middleburg which would be to far a drive for Mayport. Of course there are some not so nice area but we just don't go there. We love the weather even though it has been a hot summer. My son has a friend that is at Mayport. He is out on his sub right now. If you son is a car guy there some car groups here.

Marybeth- Found out that they don't supply us with material to make the pillow cases. So I am going to go to the Orange Park Joanns to see if I can get donation. I will also hit my local Walmart as they have fabric also. If you know of any other places that have fabric let me know.Do I need a letterhead letter to get a donation?
If any one has any fabric to donate send me a message and I can sew it.

Grandboboo-We found housing at militarybyowner.com. You can choose the base you are at and it will show you the available places all by military personel. I also looked at hovergirl.com they are a real estate agency run by Navy wifes. We are in Middleburg which is below Jacksonville as my son is stationed at NAS. He has a friend stationed at King's bay and he says the Fernadina beach area is a nice place to live. It is close to Mayport. If he is looking at apartments there are some nice ones my son's friend told me about. If you want I will ask the name again. Just let me know.
