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."

There is a mom I've met through another group that is in PA but really close to Ohio. We've talked about the area a few times. Would it be ok if I contact her and see if she'd be interested in joining??

Karen and Colleen,
It doesn't matter to me where we meet. I'm just looking to meeting up for a fun afternoon visit with other Navy Moms. I may just need directions not knowing too much about the area up there.

Karen,
I just had to tell you this - - - I went to lunch with another Ohio Navy Mom today and we visited for 4 hours!!! I beat our record by about 15 minutes!!! We have to make sure we find a place where they won't kick us out!!!

Colleen,
It's a small world. My husband also has experience as a project schedular in the nuke plant, Savannah River Site in South Carolina.
If you and Karen and Valerie set up a lunch date I'd love to join you. I go up to Mentor quite a bit to check on our condo that we are trying to sell so going to Madison isn't that much more. I'd love to get to meet you all. Karen and I had lunch together awhile back and I really enjoyed it!!

Colleen,
Yes, that is funny!! What took you up to Geneva? I had a aunt and uncle that lived in Geneva but they both passed away. I think my cousins still live around that area tho'.
Melani,
Steve and I will be there - I'll RSVP on the event.

Eileen,
Sorry you won't be able to meet with us. Maybe next gathering we can do something in the evening so you can join us!
Clockard,
I moved to Stow - about an hour south.

Eileen,
Have you found where the meet & greet is yet?
Anna

Welcome Clockard! I used to live in Mentor until just a few months ago!!!
Julie,
I always applaud ways to support all our troops - I'm a veteran myself - but aren't we supposed to be wearing red on Fridays? I've been doing that for years!!

Karen,
I like fresh peeps. My daughter likes them either way but microwaved so much that they become totally crunchy!!
