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."

I have this calling problem with my "on and off" boyfriend! I want hm to call me very night and he thinks that is unnecessary! We fight about it and break up, then he calls me later and wants me back! But the stupid guy still doesn't get it, so we end up fighting again. No problem w/ my sailor she is a daughter and she likes to talk on the Phone as much as I do. So I think this is a "man" thing. What is so difficult about picking up the phone?!? Ugh

The steps to change your profile name and screen name is under the discussion above YOUR PROFILE SETTING. Read through that. "address" that lemonelephant refers to is NOT your email address but the internet address on Navy For Moms. For example, my N4M address is "http://www.navyformoms.com/profile/BunkerBee" - this has nothing to do with YOUR email address that you input to get notifcations.

OK, Mittengirl. Take your pick.
Vote in your favorite.

Quillady, you don't have to change your email address. You've done your screen name and your profile name. You are OK.

ust got back from Naomi and Randy's. Food was excellent and plentiful. Company was great. Hostess and host were gracious. We had the pleasure of meeting Mike_mom and her lovely daughter. There were 15 of us. An alternative to Golfland is San Jose Country Club - all you can eat buffet lunch. I could ask the pros if I can bring a windmill to make everyone feel at home - a putting contest will be included at no charge. Si?
Thank you, again Naomi and Randy.
Hi Cindy. Vicky, I am understanding of the security issue. I mean, I thought things like that were always cleared up at the beginning. BTW love the photos of Chrissy!
You think Southwest Air would give us a group discount? Not.
