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."

If they play each other.....hmmmmm? I guess if the USA is winning the medal count, then I can cheer for Canada.

I figure I'm fine as long as Canada doesn't plan the USA. As long as they are in different games I can cheer for both. Now if they both play for the Gold, well I'll just have to root for the USA.

June and Jeano, you sound like true Canadians arguing about hockey. LOL.
I am cheering for the U.S.A. AND Canada. Can't wait to see the snowboarding tonight.
It's snowing again. They are saying 4 inches tonight.

Jeano, I agree. My favorite Flyer, Mike Richards will be playing for Canada, but I will still be cheering on the good ole USA!!!! Tell your son the the USA girls hockey team spanked China yesterday 12-1. GO USA!!!!!!
Lyn, no offense, Crosby is a big baby, always yapping in the refs ears. It is nice to se him finally playing hockey instead of complaing about the players on the opposing team. Still, don't like him. Talented kid, just don't like him, sorry. Now Malkin is a player I wouldn't mind on my team. I'll talk hockey with you anytime. I love the game.

Haven't you heard? Pittsburgh is a drinking town with a Hockey problem. If the Steelers can't play then we watch the Penquins.

LLovemytwosailors: Hockey and not figure skating???????

Proud of your son Trish.

I'm also cheering for Canada in the Hockey games. After all, the Canadian team captain is also the captain of the Pittsburgh Penquins.

Hi Admins, Happy Valentine's day! Both my sons are doing great. They are both working this weekend, one in Groton and the other in Norfolk.
