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."

Since you like it so much, I designed it for the ladies invitational.

I am having a post menopausal hissy-fit about OPSEC. We are schizophrenic. The left and the right hand can't agree.
Read this: N4M Guidelines and OPSEC in case you can't sleep tonight. Everyone should hover the mouse over their own profile photo. I think there's been some system update because yesterday my REAL last name was there when I did that. In the course of changing that, I decided to change everything on a whim.
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.

We could also do a North Cal meet & greet in South Cal - I have family in SD, Jody has reason to visit too.

Hi Everyone,
Not much going on in my family. But just want to stop and say Hi. Sorry I won't be able to go to the M&G, but will try to make one in February. To all those missing your sailors remember that you did a good job raising them and now they are being responsible adults, so this is good thing that they are out of the house and doing an awesome job in the Navy!

Happy Friday NoCal Moms! My son is heading back to Cal today from GL. He will be so happy to be out of the weather there. It was great seeing him over Christmas and I'm hoping to make a trip to SD while he's there some time may this spring.
My household is fighting off colds, it's just so foggy in the valley! I'm looking forward to the next M&G in the Sac area. Thanks for the 'hi' Bea, it's been a while since we've connected. Remember ROFLMAO???? ((HUGS)) to everyone missing their sailors.

Marsha, have you turned off the notification? See the lttle icon just below the comment box? You can elect to get notification or not for any group to which you belong, any blog or discussion forum topic to which you have posted. Sometimes I turn it off because I get too many email messages on my blackberry (particularly blogs and discussions). Remember you can't reply via your regular email (those are just notifications), you have to sign in to N4M, check your INBOX. Marsha 1 or 2 for Sunday.
