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."

I would say that your Sailor did the right thing. Nate said if he were to get stuck in NC, all he had to do was call to give his status. Sadly, he did not. He flew out earlier this afternoon. Can't do anything about the weather.

FlCould not even get down the coast to get the flight out which probably has been cancelled by now. Still Blizzarding Maine. My Sailor rebooked for the earliest available Thursday AM. How much should I worry about him getting in trouble? He has contacted the GL A school.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas! Looks like many of us were able to spend Christmas with our Sailors...as Julie said, who knows what next year holds.
My heart goes out to the young Marine and his family....link posted below on Dodiemattsmom comments. i am so thankful all of ours arrived safely and I pray they all return safely as well.
Mesailormom...thats a lot of snow oll over the east coast...from NC to Maine...I'm sure it's gorgeous though...enjoy some of it (for a day or two) for me here in TN...while it did kinda snow where I'm from (Mid TN) it was just a dusting here, very light at that, but still a kinda white Christmas.
Miss you all and God Bless you all and your sailors!

BLIZZARD! I am so concerned about getting my sailor to the airport in Boston (from Maine) What happens if his plane gets delayed. Who do we call? I would like him to stay longer but not under these conditions. 12+" inches of snow beginning tonight...at least it did not happen on PIR weekend.
