OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

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 have been busy working. Sorry for neglecting my young friends here. Next week, If you think someone would benefit from being in his group, invite them.
Princess, I am very happy that you too are doing well and hate some private time together. Sorry that your sweetheart is stuck at bc but it's important to get his body up to snuff. Keep us informed.

Hi. I am so sorry I haven't been on here lately. First my computer crashed,then my husband and I found out that he will be stuck in boot camp for another three months!! Now we are just waiting to find out what is next. It has been very stressful but I'm doing fine. I have been going up to visit my hubby every weekend that our budget will allow. We actually had the chance to get a babysitter so we could get a jacuzzi suite and enjoy each others company. He surprised me with a wedding ring set that I wanted before he joined. He saved up for it and pulled it out of his pocket the second I pulled up to pick him up at the train station! He also got me a new computer so that would be why I am able to be back on here.
So how is everyone else doing???

Hi Wendy. Sailor Princess started this at my suggestions but haven't heard from her. I thought this would be a great group especially for young newly weds. We may have to help get a few members here. I'll have to go through my "friends" list and send out some invites. You do the same.

Don't know what has happening with Sailor Princess yet. It can be overwhelming. I have been busy with work and my other groups. I was going to send an invitation out to my N4M friends who are young and are in the same predicament.

Thank you for the invitation. I'll be one of your NFM "Aunties" - I am tied up with a business project this week but will check in periodically.
