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."

Tina, You are both beautiful, but only one of you is hot! Thanks for sharing.
Myersboy, I don't post here much (son has left) but I still keep up with this site. Your post made me laugh. That is so sweet that he picks the meal. My son would have been saying "No fair, I want some". Please post some baby pictures.

I just heard we get to skype Jordan later this afternoon. I am so excited. We will be having a family dinner. Jordan would really like a home cooked meal. He is hungry for tacos so that is what we are having. Even though he can't eat with us we usually make whatever he wants us to have so he can be with us vicariously. I will post a picture of my new grandson later tonight.

Congratulations Myersboy Gramma!!! I bet you can't wit to see Jordan's face! I'm feeling the same! But, I did get a phone call from Josh from the ship on his birthday - Aug. 10. He called late that night while we were at a friend's house. His brother was there and so was his best buddy...so he got to talk to all of us! It just made our day complete!!!!

Our grandson was born Aug 8th. Big baby 9 lbs 8 oz. All are doing well. Jordan just informed us that he gets to skype soon. I'm so excited. It's been a long 3 months since we have "seen" him.
