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 have reserved a table for Thursday, August 13th, at 12:30 pm for us at the Roasted Pear in Brooklyn Park. The address is: 9690 Colorado Lane, Brooklyn Park. I asked if it's nice out that we may want to move to the patio. Let me know if you are coming so I make sure we have enough room. Hope to see some Navy Moms!! :-)

I'm putting it on my calendar!

Yay!! I meant to do this after our Sailor left, but then I played catch up. 

I so want to attend the Aug. 13th meeting...but alas, I cannot!  Would you please have another get together soon?  I really would like to meet you great MN ladies!  I am from St. Cloud, MN.  Any chance of getting together with the moms in our area? 

Have a wonderful time in Brooklyn Park!  I will be thinking of you!  I already admire you Navy Moms!  :)

I will be there!!  Can't wait to see everybody!

Great! 

I can make it! See you Thursday afternoon. Did you guys see there is another gathering at Psycho Suzy's on Saturday August 15 at 1 p.m.? I guess it was posted on Facebook.

See you tomorrow!

Ugh, I'm sad but I won't be able to come today. Long story.... Hope to see you ladies soon!

Sorry to hear this. Hope everything is ok.
