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."

Good morning everyone. Happy Friday!
Jean love your pic. And nothing better than holding a baby :-)
Blondie, sounds like a fun and productive weekend. Enjoy your snow. We finally have fall weather, hoping it stays!
Jappy, so happy your girl is close, I know you will enjoy that! :-)
Talked to my girl yesterday, she won't be coming home for Christmas, :-( she can't afford it. I checked into flights to go see her...YIKES! Prices have jumped up, so another Christmas without her. :-( She said that's ok mom, come see me in Pensacola. Yes I will.
