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."

NorCal gals,
I have not heard from Alaina. Kinda weird. Any of you have her phone number? I have sent her a number of pms. Hmmm. She was going to do a BBQ at the park on July 10. Please keep this date in mind for the July meet and greet.

Hey all - Happy belated birthday Vicky. Sorry I missed your specail day. WOW, I'm very busy being 'home alone'. Everything that can is breaking (the computer mouse, the copier/fax/printer, the remote control for the TV). Okay, I miss him - but am sure glad to have the time to deep clean.
SUNSHINE YEA - please remember to light your candles for our vets on Monday. Blessings to all - be safe, Susan
P.S. Are we getting together in June???

I love to have an orange tiger kitty. But, Sorry I can't have a cat in my apartment unless I pay a $850 pet deposit. Which I can't afford.
I hope you all have a nice Memorial day weekend, and take a moment to honor all of our fallen heroes.

Well, they're cute, but I'm a dog person.

I love cats and dogs. I had my gallbladder taken out in 1997, I developed asthma after my hospital stay. I am reduced to looking longingly at my friends' dogs and cats.

SHARON! I was thinking BHappy!
CAT1, Quiltlady and I have had some long discussions about this. She and I will be getting together soon to go over Fleet Week details. Will report back. If anyone has specific ideas or other ideas ???

Do you think we should do a special meet and greet next year on Memorial Day - some volunteer effort - lunch at a VA hospital, host a special luncheon for local vets? Quiltlady and I are thinking that we should make one of the meet & greets every 3 months a send off luncheon for new recruits. We thoroughly enjoyed our meet and greets but we both would like to do more for the men/women who are going to be serving or have served. Your thoughts?
