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."

Been awhile since I checked in here, Sounds like all the sailors are doing pretty good....My son is still at great lakes for 3 more months and will then be going to Japan...Makes me wanna cry. He did however make the whole family cry on saturday when he showed up at the last minute to take his place as a groomsman in full dress blues at his sisters wedding. I cant tell you how proud I was to see him standing there in his uniform...I love that boy!!!

FYI just got off the phone with the photo lab in Great Lakes in regards to the Keel book. She said that it normally takes 8-10 weeks from graduation but they have changed up the format so add another 4-5 weeks to that and that it will be coming USPS. Couldn'tget her to narrow it down anymore than that. Bummer!!

Rachael made it to Spokane early this afternoon. She will be staying there a couple of days and visiting with my family. She plans to head to Bremerton on Thurs and get checked in. Happy to say her trip went smoothly, and she actually enjoyed the drive except through a couple states--sorry OK and KS lol!!
She's very excited to get to the Stennis, although it's dry docked right now. That will give her time to get settled in and get all her training in. I can't remember when she said they will be heading out, but it's all good!!
