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."

Good morning everyone! My son is also at Capo. He's a Corpsman and lives on base. Interesting about Capo for the single and IT Sailors. I didn't know that Debbie! Jamie took his advancement exam this morning and is hoping he passed. It will be for his E-4, Petty Officer Third Class if I understand his messages correctly! My husband was in the Army and it seemed a little easier to follow ranks in that branch.

Stevesmom, there is Capo that is where my son is, then Support Side that is where Carries daughter was, that is a nicer base and bigger. The IT and single sailors are on Capo they are around 20 minutes away.

Hi Carrie, how cool Amber got to snorkel I am glad she did not get eaten by a shark, that is my feel when Stephen tells me he is snorkel or swimming in Italy. LOL No work yet it will take some time before they get the results, it could a month or so. Safe travels to you.

Sharon, I will keep him in my thoughts and prays always. You have a safe trip. Tell your son thank you and God Bless!

Hey y'all! Hope all are well! Heading up to Ft Dix today for the weekend to spend with Devin before he heads to Afghanistan. Army cross-training is done and he is ready to go. Soooo wish he was in Naples instead but he will be returning there in May! :0)

LOL yes Pam I had heard about those people in Atlanta. I guess there are nuts all over the world. They can get coupons for gas so the gas is cheaper for them. Stephen pays way less then I do.
Happy Wednesday! Enjoy!

We won't even talk about Atlanta drivers. People come in from the twisty, curvy country roads and drive like NASCAR drivers in the city! If you're not doing 80 through the city, your getting run over! Nuts too! LOL. The gas is really exepensive there or so I hear, so small cars are a must!

LOL well I meant nuts, see I need spell check. Chicago drivers are not much better.

OMG they do drive like nice, I just road in the car with my eyes shut most of the time. LOL
