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 NY Moms! The 20th would work for me too! My son is Ship 11 Div 013, PIR 11/22. Auburn would be better for me, but can venture out to Destiny too if that works better for more people! :)

spomss- I'm for meeting the Sunday Oct 20th. Either Auburn or Destiny works for me.

morning NY mommas-so can we plan a lunch for Sunday Oct 20th? Would love to have a reason to meet you all-thinking that we can do a packing to send on for the one we cant get to.
Think that Auburn may almost be a central point for those in Finger Lakes/CNY area? Or do you want to venture to Destiny??
