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."

lala congrats on becoming a grandma!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a while before tht happens, my sonis only 21. has a gf but not getting married anytime soon, she has to finish college and he is overseas right now, let me tell you that was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, it was worst than him leaving for BC.
lets get together soon...... We all need as much support as we can get. It helps knowing there is someone close that is going through the same things as you.

Does anyone in this group live in the central FL/Gulf Coast area? New Port Richey, Tampa, Clearwater, St Petersburg, Orlando? Would you like to come to a Navy Mom Meet and Greet On Friday May 10 at 7:00pm at Rusty Bellies in Tarpon Springs at the Sponge docks? I would love to meet you all, hang out, and talk about our Sailors. Feel free to bring someone if you like. Also please join my FL facebook group so you can stay connected to other FL moms/families and find out about other meet and Greets in the future. We will be there again the last week of June/first week of July and will host a Meet and Greet Party then as well and host a Navy/Military Scrapbook Make and Take party as well.
