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 am not going to make it on Saturday - at that time I will be half way thru day 2 of the 3 Day Walk. I sure hope I can make one in September. It has been exactly a year since my sailor left for boot camp and I feel the need for some Navy mom chatting!

We will miss you! But we will be thinking of you walking and walking and walking......
remember that we are all here for you any time that you feel the need to chat. We are only a couple of key stokes away!

I won't be able to make it this weekend - we're having company at our lake home in Alexandria. We're going on our transatlantic cruise 8/31 - 9/20, so hopefully will see everyone in October.

Have a great time, and bring a picture or two of your cruise.
I'm going to make it, I hope, but won't be able to stay extremely long. I do want to see you all, though. :)

This will be one of those luncheons where there MIGHT be 4 of us or there MIGHT be 8 of us...or there might be 2 of us!! We will make the more of it and have a great time for those of you that can't make it! I will take pictures and post them on the sight!
Can't wait to see everyone.
