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."

Congrats Sheila! So happy for you!
Will keep you in my prayers Suzie. I had both knees replaced last year (6 months apart), and it's so very good not to have the chronic pain anymore! It's very worth it.

Woke up this morning to a text from DS telling us that he had passed his final checkride in El Centro yesterday! Solo today and then he softwings!!! Winging is in 10 days. I can't believe it is almost here. What a journey it has been. Thanks ladies for all your support. Your help is immeasurable!

Hi Everyone and Welcome to the new parents. My DS is out at LeMoore NAS in CA, working his way through Sims and hoping to be in a jet before too long. I've been following along, but have not had too much to add. Suzie, I love the patch frame. That looks like a good Christmas gift, I'm going to tuck your idea away! Had a good visit over the fourth, he was able to come home and go on our annual family vacation north. Ulua, great photo! We really enjoyed our trip to see DS at his new home in April and enjoyed lots of hiking at Sequoia. Have a great day all!

JudyM-Have a great visit with your son and his wife. My mother's house is the big blue house on the street to the south of your son's. It's next to the white farmhouse.

thanks Judy! Have a great visit with your son and new DIL. I had a chance to get to Whidbey 3 weeks ago, so beautiful and lush compared to our valley this summer. I took the shuttle from SeaTac, so easy .We did a lot of hiking with his dog and of course hiked around the bridge at deception pass. Every visit with our LOs is precious.
