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."

Mary - I'm glad you got a pic of your son. That's so exciting when you realize you are actually looking at your own son and not just another sailor. I cherished a phone call from Hawaii this week. First time we've spoken in months and it was sweet.
Fair weather and following seas to all you tigers! Bring our sailors home to us soon.

Hi Moms. Hope all is well with everyone. Alison,I was worried about you not hearing about Tiger cruise. Have you heard anything yet? LA's Mom, are you still going out to meet the ship? We'll be going out a day ahead and staying a week. We have a trip to Disney planned. Mary, any plans to see your Navy baby soon? Well, just wanted to catch up with everyone and say hello. Take care everyone. Cindy

Alison... The final list of approved tigers was sent to the sailors over a week ago. Please contact your sailor or send me an email directly.

Hi there Mary, Cindy, and other Moms, My sailor is writing like he can taste being home already. I have a grocery list and ideas on what he wants to do when he gets back already. We will not be meeting the ship, but he has tickets to fly out shortly after they get back.
I enjoyed the pics from the Carl Vinson on the swim call tremendously.Here is the link to one of Carl vinson's pics: http://www.navy.mil/view_single.asp?id=120117 Can you imagine jumping in 37' above the water! We got one pic of Bunker hill sailors in the water: http://www.navy.mil/view_single.asp?id=117734 Doesn't look like too many went swimming.
They must be on the move again to start the journey home. I wonder what stories they will have to tell about the ports of call and how immense the ocean really is. Safe traveling sailors! Enjoy your ports of call. Teri

The February news letter is out! http://www.public.navy.mil/surfor/cg52/Documents/NL_February2012.pdf
I guess our sailors want to get back to port so much that they can't imagine that we would like to be with them. Get back safely seamen.

My daughter told me it would be like camping in very close quarters and not very good food and that I wouldn't like it. I believe her.
