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."

LOL CatMom. I've already given the girls at work a heads up in regard to hubby popping in randomly. He has to bring any mail received up to work when it comes. I'll most likely be at work any time Gabe's able to call home so hubby figures not making me wait for mail is the least he can do :)

Renee,
Now your hubby can switch to Wednesdays/Thursdays as when your SRs start writing their personal letters, those are the days they usually arrive~~ :)

Hello Friends,
"I know the Lord is always with me.
I will not be shaken, for He is right beside me."

crystalgayle525 - Heard back from Tiffany promptly. I think with the Report an Issue it goes straight to NING and it is better to message her directly. I have been off the site for about a year and so have forgotten a lot of my old tricks LOL.
She said to use a different browser. Chrome or Safari. Those work best.
I am an IE user and always forget about switching browsers when I cannot get something to work.
On a sidebar...when you all go to download your Vehicle Parking Pass...IE can be a problem. If it doesn't work try another browser.
I was just recently thinking of switching over to Firefox or Chrome as the website we use for military retirement does not work with IE.
Old habits die hard...BUT THEY MUST DIE when they are bad LOL

Fireteamleaderwife- If you happen to get good feed back, please share it with me!!! :) Thank you

crystalgayle525 - I am having that issue as well when I try to change mine. I have messaged the site Admin twice and will do so again.
I will message her personally this time rather than use the report an issue feature.

Valerie: That is great news that he likes it and passed his swim test! It does get harder as they progress in training, but they get through it!
Good Afternoon!
