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."

Louann - so sorry to read about your husband. Prayers are on going for him and your family. Please contact your local American Cancer Society. The help that they can give you and support is amazing. I volunteer here with them. I am a cancer survivor and went through it without contacting them. Now that I know what kind of services they can give, I wish I had known years again when I was in New York. God Bless
Five of the six family members are here now. It is 3:00 am and we just came from the airport. Yesterday, it was the same. The flights into the local airport come in at 1 - 3:00 am. Brother in law is the same. So do wish the family was here for vacation instead.
Planning on a little shopping tomorrow with Ashley for my Brat Pack. Need to change the pace. All take care. Prayers for all that are going through troubling times right now..
