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."

How does A like it? B is doing OK, just hates the waiting and Pensacola in general. How's your mom doing? June is going to a super-budy month! BTW, I think Lynn, aka our Lynn, is finsihing school pretty soon. We should send her a big congrats from us. I'll try to find the date on FB. (I think we have our own little chater area here since no one else gets on this group anymore. Love you Kim!

Good Morning all, I know a lot of us are having our sailors home for Christmas. All my best to you for a wonderful time with them! Wishing comfort to those who don't get to have it this year, hoping for some great phone calls and/or emails for you.

It's already Dec. 14!! My boy is coming home on Friday, I'm so excited for this visit cause I know it will be a long time before it happens again. I wish you all a wonderful Christmas and New Year. As time goes on our sailors go far and near, but always close in our hearts. You are all close in mine too.
