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."

Address for Ramada is 200 N. Green Bay Road Grand Ave., Waukegan. 4 miles from the base. We stayed there over Thanskgiving and will be staying there this weekend too.

Billie I'm with you there just seeing the clock change and knowing we are so close to seeing our kids brought tears to my eyes. I can't wait:) Looking forward to seeing all of you! We have never met but seems like we are all family:) Funny how things like this can let you make so many new friends.

Hey! The countdown clock turned RED!!!!! It's like a ticking bomb. . .and I'm going to explode if Thursday doesn't hurry up and get here!

bookwurm07 - I wish I would have known the boys could wear their contacts for gradutation. Brandon is so ready to get rid of the glasses and we were there for Thanksgiving. Oh well he can have them for the weekend! Aggieo8Mom - I was wondering the same thing about their laptop and phones. Can they fly to Charleston with them??? Can they take clothes for later, etc. We are leaving GL late Sunday night so we won't be there when they fly out..

OK, hopefully this will be my final dumb question before we're all in GL. If Matt's really not leaving GL until Tuesday, Dec. 7, and has put his laptop and other stuff in a locker, will he have a chance to go to the locker and get his stuff before he has to go to the airport, does anybody know? I'm only staying till Monday, or I'd just keep everything with me and take it to the airport. Are any of you guys going to be there till they leave on Tuesday?

Nothing describes my current status more than the word "spaz".

Oh wow. Check out the countdown clock. TWO DAYS!!!!!!!!!!

Billie, thanks for posting that link... I went there and did find my son, Josh, in some of the pictures!! So funny with those "bootcamp glasses" as he called them :) No wonder he asked that I mail him some contacts -which he said he's allowed to wear for graduation! :)
