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."

Hey Everybody-
Just wanted to say that I'm looking forward to seeing you all (and that boyo of mine, too). I haven't been on the forum much since last week when I sort of watched myself fall apart over nothing, and cry at everything. Turns out it is a poorly functioning thyroid problem. So, if you are female and over 50, and find yourself being really weird (OK - weirder than your normally weird), you might want to have that simple blood test.

PIR - here we come!

Dawn- i have an extra yellow flower- that would be Connie's color. I would be happy to look for her- but could you have her ask someone maybe who 'Lori' is?
I don't know how else to get it to her. I'm going to be handing out the corsages to all those AWESOME moms who have been a part of this journey at the M&G.

Nanon- corsages are all done. But we will be putting the ribbon on at the M&G. So come and hang out with us. Terrie is bringing the ribbon.

see you all soon!

Good luck to all of the divisions and to everyone praying for them. This is a true test of who these guys and gals are. Judging by the love and concern I have seen here I am sure they are all going to make it. Mothers like all of you must have great kids. I can't wait to meet them and you.

As to doing anything. I figure my daughter is just going to hold her husband and her 2 year old for the first day. The second day she might look at me. I have movies and jammies for her to just lay around the hotel room for a few days. Then we are off to the mall.

Do you still need help putting together flowers. I can come to the Ramada early to help if you need me. Just let me know.

His time!! I dont think I'll make it to the m&g. I don't know what all his family wants to do. But it's div195
Comment by lori on May 25, 2010 at 3:01pm
Jennifer- are you coming to the M&G? I don't have your name on my list for a corsage. What div?

Dawn, you are so right. Our Sailor just wanted to go to the mall. We ate at the Rainforest, then tried to walk the mall. He had to keep stopping to text or talk so we gave up trying to get through that big mall. We took him to Best Buy to get him a new computer then stayed at the hotel. He had us take him back early to eat at the NEX.

So Ladies, Enjoy your time and they will let you know. Some love to just talk about the past 2 months.
Comment by Barry's wife on May 25, 2010 at 2:28pm

Comment by Jennifer on May 25, 2010 at 2:20pm
