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."

Welcome missG. this is a good place to be. Sounds like we have lots of new folks on the hwy 50 side of town. This is great.
Our sailor, dil and Miss Brianna will be here for my father in-law's wake (Sunday). Wow, it seems like I can't remember the last time he was home. Glad that I have the pictures. I think it has been three years at least. So, I'm cleaning and re-organizing so that they will be comfortable.
Everyone take care, and have a great week.~s~
