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."

I was thinking about serving light snacks and desserts. If you have something you would like to bring, that would be great!

Does everyone still want to meet on the 12th at 1pm?
My address is 5514 Lake River Lane, Boise phone is 853-8858 (house) or 830-8837 (cell). We are located off State Street by the Idaho Athletic Club. Turn off State Street on Market Lane, turn left on Lake Harbor and continue ALL THE WAY around the lake. The gate will be open. House is the last one on the lake side with a very long driveway.
Please let me know if you are coming so I have plenty of goodies for everyone! Do we want to do an ornament exchange and/or bring toys for Toys for Tots?

18th doesn't work for me either. Just found out last night that Kay will be coming in for the holidays on the 17th. Want to spend as much time as possible with her. I know y'all understand that!

If everyone is ok with it, lets make it the 12th around 1pm at my house. I will post address and directions soon.

If Saturday's are better for the majority, we can move it to the 18th.

Now that you mention Army/Navy game I forgot about that...I think we're committed to another event for the game. Let me know what other days work out. 12th would be ok but I Saturdays would work better for me.

Hi everyone! I just realized that the Army-Navy game is on Dec. 11th at 12:40pm. Would anyone mind changing our get together to the 12th? That is a big game day in our family! I can't do the 5th since that is the last home game for BSU and we are season ticket holders.
