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."

Thank you Polli k.  It seems that things happen in 3's, so I really pray that my 3 are done.  The family of they young mother is doing as well as can be expected.  I was really concerned about her 3 year old daughter as she seemed mad at everyone the first week.  Now that she is back in her normal (somewhat) routine she is back to smiling and playing.  The family has had numerous offers of help so they will not be alone.  It was a very hard funeral to attend, but we must go on.

I pray that all of our military members will have a safe holiday season and their families will too.  Have a great week!

Please pray for me and the families of 2 my friends.  One, a long time friend, Mary, who passed away on Sunday. Two, a friend from church, Becky, who suddenly and unexpectedly passed away last night.  She has 2 young daughters and a husband who took her to the ER yesterday.  She had pneumonia but we do not know for sure if that is why she left us.  These are the 2nd and 3rd people I have lost since my nephew passed away in late August.  It is hitting me very hard.

Here is a Navy warmer I found and have set up that all proceeds goe to the USO. they make beautiful holiday gifts too.... they carry over 81 different scents as well.... these warmers are so safe. there is no wick, no flame, no soot, no smoke.... the wax is heated by a light bulb inside the warmer..... it's totally safe around children and animals, as the warmer doesn't get any hotter then a mug of coffee, the wax is food based (like the wax put on an apple) so if accidentally ingested it is safe. as far as allergies are concerned. what most people don't understand is they are allergic to the soot and the lead from the wick. on pages 48 and 49 is the cheapest way to order and save money as well.. it's a combine and save The link for this and more products can be found at http://juliesalemo.scentsy.us /be sure to click on N4M-USO  - shipment will be made directly to you and in turn we are helping support the USO - they do so great things for our miltary - thanks

TY for Sean's address I have been praying for this tragic situation and plan on writing to Sean and family members.  Noted that today at 2 PM is the funeral for his brother and parents.
Comment by Nautical Mom on September 17, 2011 at 1:47am

Please be in prayer for Sean Reynolds, 397 CR 4774. Pittsburgh, Texas 75686

He lost his mother, father and only brother in a car accident in Arizona last week.  They were on their way to San Diego from Texas - to see his ship, the USS Ronald Reagan dock after a lengthy deployment.  He will bury his family on monday, the 19th of September at 2 pm...I don't know how this young man is getting through this, except by the grace of God.  Please pray that our Lord will give him strength to get through this tragic loss and we as Navy mom's should send a note of sympathy and love to him...God Bless, Cindy - a Texas Navy Mom

Praise report (Who's report do you believe?)  Thank you Lord Jesusfor turning that hurricane Irene from a cat. 3 to a cat. 1 as the eye passed 30 miles from my house,,,damage could have been soooo bad.    Psalm 103 reads.."Bless the Lord oh my soul and all that is within me bless His holy name..forget NOT all His benefits..Who forgives all your iniquities , Who heals all your diseases, Who saves you life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness." GTG Glory to God
