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."

KDBGTN. Didn't receive your friend request. Will you try again? To all TN MOMS... hope you had a good Christmas today. Mine was bittersweet, as my son leaves for bc in Feb. but I was blessed to have this day. My thoughts and prayers are with those of you who went through today without your child for the first time.

Oh wait. Do I need emails or phone numbers or can I post it as an event?

Yeah! We will have to try to get together after the holidays! I'm thinking middle of January. We can all meet and eat and talk! Please send me your emails or phone numbers, I guess by message so it stays private if you want. Then I can be sure and set up a meeting. Have a Merry Christmas! I am lucky to have this time with my son, and he is being very patient with me as I take a million pictures!

Hey ladies
I was wondering if anyone was attending the PIR Feb 1st, I was trying to carpool there and back but pick up a rental when I arrive in Chicago. Are there any support groups here in middle Ten that support this idea, or will anyone be willing to participate with me.

hey Rebecca - I know what you mean about the shipping....I thought about that as part of expense when I was thinking about doing the bags and how many I could stuff and mail. I saw one mom on facebook offering "sponsor" opportunities for cost of shipping a box as a way for others to help that didn't want to take on the project of stuffing but wanted to do something....
i am looking for ideas for stickers to put on my shipping boxes...I have this really cool project sticker type of printer paper. My niece offered to have her school kids make Christmas cards to include so I am holding off on packing them in boxes yet. Excited to include those cards from the kids - they are 8th grade so will be cool to see what they say/write......
anyway - off to bed, it's midnight and I got to work early tomorrow!
