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."

Anna, that's great that he made it. 70 degrees. I would love some of that weather. Ethan misses home but not the weather.
-

Chris, I let Ethan know that Michael was headed that way. Tell him to give him a call sometime. He is at NAS North Island. Do you know where Michael will be yet?
Anna, I'm glad you got involved. The group has helped me stay busy too!

Ethan had said that a buddy from BC had come to San Diego for a visit. Just checking to see if it was your sailor, but that would be too far away. He will love San Diego!

Please give Michael our congrats. I'll let Wade know he graduated today as well. How far is San Diego from you?
-

Yeah, Michael!!!! That is great!!! Chris, was he just home for a visit? Like last week or so?
I too, am so proud of our guys!!!

I'm so excited I can finally sign on again! I have been reading and keeping up with everyone but haven't been able to do anything but read the entries. I am so proud of all our 313 guys.
We took a car up to Wade in cold Groton, CT this past weekend. It is wonderful how you all are doing with the cards for the personnel serving in Haiti. Wade wanted to go so badly when they sent about a dozen Corpsman from Groton over to the Comfort. Please e-mail me the address, Kim, at tsuggs@hsblawfirm.com and I'll get some cards done too from around this area.
Tammy, so excited to read about Josh. I am going to e-mail Wade right now with the graduation news. I hope he doesn't have to wait too long for ET A school to open up.
This has really made my day that I can again keep in contact with all of you.
I need to change Wade's picture too from this high school one....

-
Yeah Josh!!! Congrats!!!
-
-
OK, I was told to go ahead and mail to the contact that I have shared with you! These sailors need all the encouragement that they can get. Thanks!
-

Ladies, before you mail your cards and letters hold tight. The contact ship is leaving Haiti and we will have a new address. If you've already mailed, that's fine also cuz they still need the thank yous.

Anna and Tammy P, thank you so much for helping. They will love the coloring pages and words of encouragement. Anna, I sent you the address.
