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."

Thank God for this web site, I feel normal now that I know I'm not the only one who cries! Sometimes you feel that nobody understands but I know that here with you ladies, you get it! Thank you for being here. I'm so excited about our lunch! To those that can't make it, we'll do it again, let us know your schedule, I'm usually pretty open on weekends (no life)! I'd love for this to become a regular thing for us all. Hugs to you all.
P.S. I'm only going to hint that we will have a "special" guest joining us Saturday!!! Not going to say any more, want you all to be surprised.....

They are good tears Cheryllynn :) I cry all the time, I don't think there's a day that goes by that I don't cry about something, and it's never cause I stubbed my toe or something, it's for all emotional reasons LOL
Sorry you can't make it Marcia, but I'm sure there will be many more visits :)

LOL Lisa, I like your comparison to the Grinch movie! :-) I'm looking forward to meeting all of you Saturay! It doesn't matter is our kids have been serving for years or are just graduating from boot camp, we all have an enormous amount of pride in their accomplishments and commitment to service.
