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."

I'm near Altoona. I asked about the notice and all so I could drive, perhaps, to wherever. But I need a good lead time to get off from work and I work all weekends.

How does eveyone feel about doing this in Allentown?
I work in the area and can get pricing vey easily with some of
the local restaurants.
This of course will require planning and participation.
If you know other PA moms that would be interested please tell them to reply to the Blog.
So far there are 5 of us!!
Thank you
