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."

Meet & Greet 12/2/10
I have been asked to coordinate & help plan a Meet & Greet for families of 12/3/10 PIR sailors. Any and all input is greatly appreciated. I will be emailing my nephew who is a naval reserve officer for possible locations close to the base that we could meet at the evening before graduation. Hope to see all of you there:)

I'm game! Give me a job and I'll do it! How will you know who will be there, since not everyone is on N4Ms?

I don't think there is a way to know everyone who will be there so was only focusing on the N4Ms members...

Ok, so we can bring extra nametags and sharpies I guess, for the other people. A couple of us need to man the nametag booth then. I should be there in time. Or would you like me to do something else boss? What other jobs might there be?

I was thinking more personalized name tags. I can bring 3" x 4" pin name badge holders. I wondering if there was a way to make name tags for everyone in the PIR 12/3/10 group planning on attanding the M&G?

I guess if you can send out a message to all the members of this Group and ask them to reply if they are attending so you will have a list. If you are the Admin on this group, you shaould be able to do that. We could divide and conquer to get the name tags printed. I am guessing you want some kind of design, like the navy seal or something, if we can use that. IDK. I would be happy to design something if you need. I have an advertising agency

Didn't I read somewhere that there's somebody at the door to the M&G passing out nametags? Or did I just imagine that? I plan on being at the M&G if we make it into town in time. We're driving up from OKC that day and I've been told it's a 12-14 hour drive.

The Ramada has someone who hands out name tags, but I was looking for a way to help us identify N4Ms at the M&G...
