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."

HAPPY NEW YEARS
-

kate- lmao yea we were wanting to wait till our 10 yr anni but its getting closer and closer haha in 3 yrs we will be married for 10 yrs.. we want to travel so we probably wont have a wedding just no time.:/ and like i said it isnt a priority my mom will just have to deal
-
-
Jennifer- OHHHHHH lol i feel dumb.
Kate -i had a white wedding with 4 months to plan, if you want a white wedding you WILL have one. I know with the navy, and military in general plans can change at any time.. i was scared to death the whole time they werent gunna let him come home, but try to plan it around a time he can take leave. but idk how it works when he gets to his first duty station.

we are planning on renewing our vows since we didnt have a wedding.. we just did the justice of peace but it went so perfect that renewing our vows isn't really a big priority like it was before we got married.. but my mom wants me to have a "real" wedding :/
@ emily- a white wedding is a traditional wedding
-
-
haha feel kinda dumb for asking this but what's a 'white wedding'?
-
-
& @ katie- see if he would be able to make it home, and have it there, his parents requested that we wait until we're 21 but that didnt happen haha and i've read that its easier to get married in school because youll be on his orders and they'll move you with him instead of having to do everything yourself!
-
-
@Jennifer- YES so excited!!! but since i'm not on his orders i have to pack everything myself haha i haven't and don't even know where to start!
