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."

Good Morning everyone, I havn't posted for a while so thought I'd do it now. My son was home for Christmas, it was wonderful! (He brought me 2 new Navy Mom shirts!) He went back to GL this week and then heads for San Diego. He's SO excited to be out of the cold weather. (a real Calif. boy) I'm happy to hear about how all of you doing and look forward to attending at least a few of the events this year. We had a wonderful time at Cindy's last month! Oh, and a Belated HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year Everyone! We made it home safe and sound. The sailor and his family are all doing wonderfully. We were able to bake cookies with our littlest angel. What a treat. Of coures they were all 'mine' in her two year world. We ended up staying at Eagle Tree RV park just outside of Poulsbo. It was only six miles to the base (Bangor). Full hookups and a Good Sams spot. The ones in Bremerton were much farther away as was Scenic Beach. And, since we were towing a trailer for them this was much easier. Thank you for your prayers for safe travel. ~Susan

Hi No.Cal Moms and Dad, Chrissy got safely back to GL late last night. We all had a wonderful two weeks. Thinking of maybe going out there about late March or April. Anyone been to GL in March or April? How cold is it that time of year? And when does the snow melt?
