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."

Hi Maria: I would love to attend one of the dinners in the Dallas area, but unfortunately, I live on the Gulf Coast. Guess I'll have to start a dinner down here in my area. I am really looking forward to attending PIR on 6/20/14. My oldest grandson went thru Basic in Great Lakes and I attended his graduation in about 2005, so am familiar with how impressive the ceremony is. I still can't wait.

To all you ladies living in Carrollton, TX. What a treasure you have in little Rhema Marvanne of Carrollton. I just came across this video of her singing Amazing Grace.

You are welcome to attend! Please join us. The ladies in the group can give you encouragement and support as your son begins the "Navy" journey.

My son is in week 4 of boot camp, can I still come to the dinner or should I wait until he's officially a Sailor? I'm from Plano. =) Thanks!
