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."

okay, one more day to wait for that call. Tossed and turned all last night and know I wont be sleeping tonight either. I think the 'white highlights' in my hair have tripled - so bad that I made an emergency call to my hair magician and we're gonna get rid of them. (at least for 4 wks!). Can't wait to hear about our groups calls tomorrow.

Too true KarsonsMama! I know that I have been changed by this experience and quite frankly, do not want to go back to my "original dimensions".

I've been looking for a quote or inspirational message all morning [in between working like I should have been... ;-) ] But I found this one and it just spoke to me on so many levels about ours and our SR's trips through Boot Camp - cause we were all there with them!! I just thought I would like to share it with all of you - very simple, but it made me say wow, yeah...

Can't believe this part of the journey is almost over. I am so excited to see everyone graduate Friday and to spend some time with my son again.
