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."

Try looking at flights into Milwaukee. They are usually cheaper. It's cheaper also to rent a car there and takes about 45 minutes to get to Waukeegan which is 5-10 minutes fro base depending where you stay.

all5roc, Her kids have gone to Springer and Cain and spend a lot of time at the RISE! This year she went back to work full time as a school counselor in Garland and put her kids at Dallas Christian. It's more convenient for me to pick all of them up at one place closer to my home. We all go to Lakepointe to church. She has 3 boys in 3rd grade, 7th grade and 9th grade.
