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."

Kellygray79, Tx sisters are just as welcome here as moms are. This is a great group that will help your mom keep her sanity while your brother is in BC. Most any question that either of you have can be answered by this group. Welcome aboard!

Not a TX mom but a TX sister. My mom isn't a computer fan so I'm her advocate online - ha ha!
My brother just left for boot yesterday. He joined from San Angelo, TX. We live in Midland, TX and my parents live in Copperas Cove, TX.

Donna my son roped with several guys from the Pearl...the Crow gentleman, Barts dad, Clint Albers and the Bostons...
We don't have a horse on the place now either we sold the large horse trailer and all I sure do miss it. But I raise and show toy and mini aussies and take care of my mom so we are very busy!

We have a FB page for Navy Moms of East Texas. Most of us are from the Kilgore-Longview-Marshall area. If you are anywhere close we would love to have you.

Donna it is such a small world. Who would have ever thought that something as large as the Navy could bring so many moms together within a short distance? It's just crazy. We sold all our horses after our sailor left. We became empty nesters and travel a lot and always needed somebody to come feed and water. It was a bittersweet moment but was for the best

CindyW, my husband does many desensitization horse clinics at cowboy churches all over Texas. He used to often rope in Rendon. Needless to say, my sailor is a huge cowboy himself!
