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."

Hi, Jane. Thanks so much for the invitation. What time is the brunch? I do a gym class on Sunday morning and then church, so I'm pretty tied up until around 12:30. Don't like to miss my Sunday morning church service. But I would love to meet with you all another time if not this time. Thanks!

Welcome Dianne. Would you like to join us for brunch on May 16 in Miami Lakes?? We are a small group but all proud Navy moms. I attended a Wounded Warriors benefit last night. We had 25 young men and women there. They come to the Keys 6 times a year for fishing and diving. Very courageous group. Jane in the Keys

I'm off to California on Sunday to see Steve. Very excited. Do we have a count yet as to the meet and greet?? If no one can go we'll have to postpone. Even if it's just 2 of us I'm willing to make the trip.

Hi we are native Miamians now I'm in Altamonte Springs. My son Jerry, arrived at BC last nite -- I got the call. He will go to Pensacola for AM training. I'm wondering where most AM's are sent after school? I know i'm getting ahead of myself, but just can't help wondering. I want to encourage him to get high marks in his training with some valid examples. Thanks!

Laura where is your son. Steve is at Travis near San Francisco. Kyle's mom make sure you join boot camp moms group it is very helpful. Boot camp is tough on the family as you can't talk with your sailor, but graduation is awesome.
Can you join us May 16??
