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."

The commander of Helicopter Sea Combat Wing Pacific Fleet came by while we were at the house. He said he was using the opportunity to debrief DS regarding the deployment and offer Admin support. When they started talking I asked if we should leave but he said it wasn't necessary. Boy was he right, they rattled off so many acronyms and talked so fast we just had to chuckle. It was an interesting visit, we rarely see DS in work mode.

Helomom, oh my gosh! Hugs and more hugs for all of you! So glad to hear that all went as well as could be hoped for and that all of you were able to be there to support.

Helomom....yes, I agree that I like how the "troops" rally around when one needs help. Thrilled to here that your DIL is recovering.

Yikes! Sorry that post was so long. Still reeling bit from it all. I hadn't written it down before.
