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."

Down 3 lbs this week!! Yeah. Now just two more weeks, what is everyone doing to stay in shape. I'm walking the dog and my friend's dog this weekend while they are away. Fair trade since she gets my 12 yr old while we go to PIR. Ummm, not sure that is a fair trade, but at least she doesn't have to walk my daughter!!

WOW!! That's GREAT!!! Way to go!!

I didn't weigh this week because I didnt' go to Yoga or Swim on Wednesday. I hurt my heel and it's hard stepping down on it. It's doing better so hopefully this coming week I'll know. It's been fun this week though, getting a little exercise in while I take pictures. :)
