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."

My sailor gets to come home to me for the weekend! Hurray extended liberty! :) He flies in late Friday night and then flies out early Monday morning. It'll be quick, but totally worth it. I can't wait to meet him at the airport and tackle him with hugs and kisses! :)

I saw a few of you talking about the whole marriage thing. I was talking to my boyfriend's cousin and he let it slip that my boyfriend was going to propose after he got out of A school and got his 2 week leave. Needless to say I was in a total state of shock for quite a while. But I am beyond exited. I'm just gonna have to pretend that I don't know a single thing about it when that time comes!! :-)

Leaving today for Chicago!
So excited about this week and finally being able to wrap my arms around my Joey!

I wish nothing but SAFE and happy trips for the families that are traveling to PIR this week.

Nicole- I remember the feeling. Not knowing what he was doing or how he was doing... I wondered all day about him. And yes, snail speed sums up how SEEMS to pass. But once its all over, everyone goes back and thinks, "Gee. That flew by!" I even though, "It wasn't THAT bad.. I could do it again." Keep yourself busy! And once those letters start coming, the wait will be worth it :)

AllieNJ- I will get to talk to him...everyday. It's so amazing and such a change from boot camp.

My boyfriend just graduated from Aschool in p-cola. We are planning on getting engaged as soon as he comes home from deployment in december. I love to plan ahead and its really hard to set dates or times or places for everything with how short noticed everything is, especially a school.. We waited forever to find out where he was going to be stationed next...we found out a few days before he graduated and a couple days after graduation he was back home! So just got to go with it :]
