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."

Right now, Wednesday is great for me. But, I have to call for a doctor's appt. for asap. I'll let you know for sure after I call him tomorrow AM as soon as his office opens.
Exactly where on Rte. 1? Heading north on Rte 1 from S. Attleboro, is the Honey Dew before or after Emerald Square? And, which side of the street is it on?

Hi Johanna, I would love to join you all on the 31st and will bring something. I'm still pretty green about all this as my son is in DEP and not scheduled to go until October (another Nuke). Looking forward to seeing Donna/Proud Navy/NYPD Mom and meeting everyone else.

I believe they had a charity walk/run at Gillette earlier in the day also. Maybe we should do that too?? Any takers? I personally have to get in shape, but I'm working at it...

So what did everybody do for the 4th??
Andrew & I had a quiet day, then he went to Attleboro to see their fireworks. The reason for the quietness was because we went to Gillette on Wednesday night and it took us 1-3/4 hours to get home which is usually 10 min. max. down Rte. 1!! All that time in traffic ... YUCK.
