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."

Name Tags for Sarge's Meet n Greet for 03/07
Hi everyone,
I had a nice talk today with Sarge, and since he and his wife put on the event from their own pockets, I asked how can I help. He has asked me to do the name tags for the event and another surprise, but IF you want a name tag with your Division number, I will need you to email me your names (as you want them on the tag) and your Division. Email me at jeffandmoira@sbcglobal.net
Thank toy and let us not forget to fill the donation jar for Sarge that night to pay it forward to the next group!!! Have a great night, see you on March 7th

Regarding Sarge's meet and greet....Just wanted to be sure everyone understands it is not just a Navy for Moms thing and choosing to have 5 name tags with your screen name on it for your family is not the way anyone will know you. I only have 2 families that have said that was their wish, just wanted to be sure they understand it is way more people then from this site attending
