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."

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 27, 2009 at 1:00pm: Let me know if hubby's are going , "cause I don't want to leave my "big Kahuna" home if other hubby's will be there!!! I think we should all wear grass skirts and "coconut bra's" :0 That would be a hoot!!!!

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 26, 2009 at 7:35pm: Trish, that sounds like fun, I will consider it if you are going.

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 25, 2009 at 8:10am: Hi Jean saw your pictures on facebook, we were at the race in Narragansett Fri(not participating, just watching) I quess everyone has a lot going on, we will find a good date for everyone eventually.
Things here have been pretty hectic too. My 42 year old cousin had a massive stroke, one of our dearest friends had a massive coronary last Sunday, and is not doing well, and Anthony spent a day in hospital because his diabetes has been out of control, now he has a "million" doctors appt's!!!
Yes, Cheryl is a trip!!!!

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 22, 2009 at 9:57pm: Sue, I'm still up for getting together, but since no one responded to my last message, I thought everyone was busy! Let me know when and where. If you want to come further South that would be fine with me!

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 17, 2009 at 10:47am: Hi Kimberly, Welcome !

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 16, 2009 at 10:57am: Oh Alicia, that is awful, poor kitty! Glad she is on the mend. I think that is how Ocean State built that beautiful new "hospital", I walked out of there with "Molly" after my bill was up to $300.00 and all they had done was an x-ray and cleaned up blood from her leg.Did the same as you took her home and called our vet on Monday!!(this was a while ago)
Jean we have fisher cats and coyotes here also, we had a fisher cat screeching outside our window , you are right, I jumped up thinking it was a baby!!!!
So, what does everyone want to do about getting together??????????????

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 15, 2009 at 9:28am: Trish, I did see the pictures, the gown is gorgeous, do they have a date set

As for the get together, I don't know about the 23rd(usually we do something for my sister-in-laws b'day the Sunday before her b'day the 25th?) If Marianne is leaving for NJ that day, I don't know is she would be able to come, and Lynne will be away for the entire weekend????? How about the rest of you ladies????

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 14, 2009 at 8:42am: How about Friday or Sat. 8/21, or 22?? Yes, Dawn we would love you to come, you are part of our R.I. family, you can be a celebrity if you want!!!!
Trish, I can't wait to see pictures of Heather in the dress! I have been chatting with another Navy mom, from another state (can't remember which one right now) who's daughter also received a wedding gown from a shop near them. I think it is really great, they deserve "Navy mom hugs"!!!

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 12, 2009 at 8:35pm: Yes, Marianne I agree, so when will you be here again??

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on July 12, 2009 at 5:07pm: Well, ladies we have a request for a get together..... when and where????? Maybe South County?
