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 Dunes! My son has been in Whidbey for over 2 years now. He should be back from deployment in time for the birth of his first child in October. I have a trip planned to WA mid October to meet my new grandson.
Kim I hope Lauren is doing good at her new duty station. What plane is she working with now?

Glad to hear Lauren made it ok, I have been really busy the is summer and look forward to slowing down a little. Chris will be coming home to see our new Grandbaby sometime in Sept. I will let you know when I go back to Chattanooga, and be sure to let me know if you ever get to Memphis. I think the kids are planning on meeting up once they get back to TN.
