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."

What happened to everyone is 3.5 years. I can't believe we're not all that far from the four-year mark. Does everyone know yet if their sailors will be staying in the Navy?

It's been a while. Congrats Sara and Nichelle. It's been a rough and busy year. We lost my mom to cancer a few days after thanksgiving and Brian was deployed and wasn't able to come home. He got home late on Christmas eve, boy would I have loved to see his kids wake up Christmas morning finding thier Daddy home! He was able to get leave and they came down from Washington for 3 weeks. Had a great time seeing them all and the rest of our kids and grandkids at our house. Oh I can't forget the grand doggies too! Hope everyone is doing well. Take care and God Bless

Sandra, Finally found you on facebook. Yep we are still in San Diego and would love to meet up. I'm so happy that Nichelle is having a little one! I agree that everyone seems to have parted ways but everyone is always so busy these days.
Christmas was interesting and Maddie will be an experienced traveler before she turns one. We flew home so everyone could see her and then as soon as we got back to Cali we had to fly back out for Shawn's grandfathers funeral who never met Maddie but supported us thru everything it took to get her. It was very interesting since she is the 34th great grandkid on that side!!!
Today she is 17wks so time flies. Shawn's ship is gearing up and getting tests done before they head to Alaska for the commissioning in May which his mom is going and helping us pay to go meaning after that trip Maddie will on been on 11 planes by the end of May!! I hope everyone is doing great!
