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."

oh no - ok - well, I have to be in Conroe early on the 19th! If we don't make it too late a night - let's try for March 18th. I'll be bringing my sister and her birthday is the 20th so that would be good.
Donna(s), will you be able to come then? Matt's Mom? Everyone else? Anyone else? HELLO!!!

Welcome Tammy Ruth! My son is an AT and stationed in WA. There are at least a couple of us that don't live far from you at all. Maybe you can join us next time we have a packing party or a pillowcase sewing party. There are also plans to meet some moms from the Houston area for an evening meal.

Fri. eve good for me, too. I found out I can post Sam's orders... Mayport, Florida on the USS Carney. He got the same orders as one of his friends. He is excited. There is a girl that will not be happy about this. She wanted him to take orders in SD. There weren't any.

Yes a Friday would work better for me. We are going to Palestine to the Texas State Railroad with our son, dil and grandkids to ride the train on the 26th not sure yet if we are going up Friday evening or Saturday morning but other than that Fridays are open.

Matt's Mom - I was thinking more of a Friday evening meal. Would that work for you? I promise to have you back home by 10.

No fair Brenda Sue I want to know where Sam is going too. You will have to share with me when I see you in the morning.
Donna that is great that Sam got his orders-hopefully closer to home. Hey if he ends up at the same duty station Matt is at we could make a road trip together!Have a safe trip to Md.
I hope that I can come to the get together but Saturdays in April are booked up with my car club. At least early morning to midafternoons are.
