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."

Ya I saw that the P8 was here getting ammo'd up. I asked my son if he would be switching over and working on them. He said not at this time. Eve though they are getting rid of some of the p3's they are still going to have them for a log while. Also said that Boeing has a 10yr contract to fix everything that goes wrong with them. But right now his shop is supper busy cause as they sell some of the p3's everything have to work perfect on each one before it leaves. So they have been getting in all kinds of stuff to check out. He has been tired when he gets home from work.

Yea Jim did you miss us?  Oh look at that plane!  wow Dune has been flying on the P-3 for now but thinking this is the next step.  WOW look at that plane!

Comment by navymom3 on February 5, 2012 at 3:41pm

dunesmom ya he loves his car very much. He bought it just before he went out to sea for 7 months. Put it in a storage unit until he got back. And spent most all of his money while out to sea on parts for it. It used to be white then white with digi camo fenders. He has had it this color for a week now. He has won lots of trophys with it. And he does all the work himself.

My oldest and youngest love cars. My middle son who is in Japan could car less. He just got himself a very nice guitar. And didn't get his drivers license until age 20. The youngest who is 15 thinks he knows all about cars and can't wait for his license. LOL

I am sure he will. His car looks like this now. He just had it all wrapped in vinyl. Tell your son to look for this one.
