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 Rocky - sorry for those that missed Saturday's M&G. We will have another one - soon probably.
Please keep our little Miss Brianna in your prayers. Looks like things will be loner than anticipated.

Hey Pay... Ronny has asked for pics of the motor home for sale. We spent the ret of the afternoon looking at trailers we can't afford. Then he actually looked at the text I sent during lunch and asked for more info.

Had a wonderful time will all of you lovely ladies! Food was good, company was the best. Vicky, guess you got your money worth on that drink. Glad you made it home safely.
It was even fun having the husband there, for the short time they were visiting with us.
