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."

Hi Robin, how are you doing. That is nice your daughter found someone nice. I think there are a lot of jerks out there. Have you heard from her? I would love to see any pictures you want to post.

Carrie I paid around $640 round trip for each one of us. DIrect flight was over $4,000 could not do that, so by stoppping it cut it in half which was doable. You will have so much fun.

Robin, how are you doing? I know your daughter will be fine and will love being on a ship. More worried about you. LOL
Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on February 5, 2010 at 2:25pm
LOL Chicago, well you will be in my neighborhood. Let me know the prices you are getting and it also depends on the time of the year you are going. Stephen is an ITSA, he works with computer. I would love to give Amber a hug!!!! I told Stephen already I wanted to meet her.
Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on February 5, 2010 at 1:42pm
I know Carrie a lot of people don't come on here, I wonder why we are the best. LOL
Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on February 5, 2010 at 1:41pm
Carrie, I think Stephen would like some down time he is always working, the other day he had a bullet proof vest on, and told me he carries two guns, Oh boy I hope he does not have to shoot anyone. LOL I thought his computer was his weapon. He has a class this week so he does not work until the weekend. Venice, I would love to go there but too far, not enough time, let me know how she likes it.

Sharon, maybe I will get to meet Devin if he is down there in May. I would love to meet Amber also. I am flying Delta to MI and the Lutansia (sp) to Paris.

Robin - hope you are enjoying your time with Ali!
I have been workig out of town and by the time I finish on the computer at night I am beat!
Did get a call from Devin yesterday! Was GREAT to hear his voice! Poor kid, someone was fraudulently using his bank account! We got it all reported and taken care of but he really didn't need the added stress! WE were communicating almost daily through facebook but the Navy put a stop to all facebooking, said something about it was interfering with flight plans! Oh well - I bought a international phone card and sent him the numbers through e-mail so now when he gets a spare second he can call! They are expecting to be out of there by May but his is told that he will be in the first wave to leave as he is not stationed on the Comfort. He'll be happy to back in Naples!
