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."

Glad you had a good time. PIR is a moving experience. Our kids grow about 5 feet taller because they walk so tall and carry themselves so proudly.

Snow is fun, we got caught in the Mt. Lemmon Christmas blizzard last year. No power and lots of snow. The power came back on just before the generator ran out of gas.
