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 everyone, it's been a while since I've posted here. Sorry I've missed the past few M&G's and I won't be going to sewing meet up either. I'm still hoping to be able to make it one of these days. Unfortunately, my vision continues to decline and it's more difficult to get out and about. Maybe some day I'll have you all to my place again, I really enjoyed that.
I forget what I've shared about my sailor...I think I said that he got married this summer. He'll be deploying again this winter. He's doing fine although his wife has some health issues they are dealing with. Other than that, all is well.

I will come Saturday if my Mom is feeling up to it. She is 80 years old. Maybe I will stop by even if she can't come, I don't know for sure yet. I will call her Friday night. Either way I will be going to Sac on Saturday, I am planning on getting Aidan at 2:30 pm and take him out for ice cream. I miss him, I have not seen him since May. I need a grandson hug!

Welcome to our new mom's. Please keep us posted on how your sailor's are doing.
My himself (husband) is going to take care of the doggies for me Saturday morning, so I should be 'on time'. I will bring cups too - if we are having that type of refreshment. I can bring my ice tea maker if you want - just let me know. I'm packing the picnic basket now. I'll bring my sewing maching, poratble ironing board, and two irons (don't ask - I'll share in person - you will love this sailor story). My girl-friend can't come - however, I have a lady from one of my churches who used to sew - I'm going to call her.
Blessings and prayers to yrou sailor's. ~S~
