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."

I would like to know more about the San Antonio lunch. We're having to tear out our bathrooms and don't know about being able to leave at that time, but would like to try!

As I read all the posts about Sean My heart just breaks and tears fill my eyes. I informed my church about this tragedy last night and we are taking up a collection for him. We started it last night and we will announce it on Sunday again. I will send all of this money directly to him. When I left last night we had right at $800.00 so hopefully after the 2 worship services on Sunday I will be able to forward him a pretty good sum of money. Our pastor is a former Marine and they all are so very supportive of Colten. One lady said last night that the Navy is now part of Colten's family so that makes part of the church family. I will keep you posted on how it goes.

i'm sitting here crying and my heart is breaking for Sean Reynolds. I 'm getting a card for him tomorrow and sending him my condolence's and love as a Navy mom. God Bless him and other's that are left to deal with this tragic loss. If he should ever need a mom - i've got enough love to share with him. I know that my Sailor would want it that way. This Navy family has given me so much love and understanding since July - i just wanted to express my feelings to you all and let you know, I am a proud Navy mom. My sailor got his orders and is going to be deployed...too much heartache for one week....
