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."

That's okay - just think, we only have one more weekend between us and our loved ones!  (I refuse to count the weekend we are currently in - my game, my rules...)
Good Morning ladies, The countdown clock says 10 days, 2 hours and 20 minutes. I am so excited I could just burst. Its a little surreal to think it is actually just about over. We did it, yay for us all. Have a wonderful day.

WE ARE NOW IN SINGLE DIGITS ON THE CLOCK!!!  WOOHOO :)

(I think I just hurt something...)

Good morning everyone! Everyone ready for the trivia contest today?? Lets win this one!!

Well, we dint get this one today....but tomorow we have to win it!! We get to see them next week. Can u believe that PIR is only 10 days away!! Woo Hoo we will be in the single digits tomorrow!!

Is the meet and greet on thursday or Friday?
The meet and greet I am going to is on Thursday night at the Ramada. And for an update  the countdown clock is at 9 days. whoo hoo. Where is everyone staying? We are at the Quality Inn and we are going a couple days early. We only live about 3 hours away but thought we would take a mini vacation while we were there.

We r at the Ramada, so I will see you at the meet and greet. Our plain gets in early thursday.

8 days, I love this countdown!  I know we will see our boys next week but I am all geared up for the Wednesday Photo Contest. Wouldn't it be great to see them sooner?  Good Luck everyone

We are at the Ramada too and should get there early Thursday afternoon - Can not wait!!

Did anyone ever hear back from Courtney? Was wondering how her son was.

Haven't heard, but it was her finance not her son. I hope everything is ok with them
