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."

Hi All, Well this weekend marks the half way mark for some of us and other will see their Sailor sooner. I know everyone is getting as excited as I am. I want to let you all know if you are going to homecoming I called this week and made reservation at the Navy Lodge in Norfolk. She told me my Sailor could show his ID when he comes in or my daughter in law. It was 75.00 a night with 2 queen beds. That is a deal! Hope everyone have a wonderful weekend. Looks like storms headed my way. Oh well have lots of things to do inside.

Where do you order your signs from? Are you going to homecoming even though he is almost home now? I am so envious. I hope he has a swift, safe journey home.

I always have a problem with the voice delay on the phone. Sometimes I forget what I asked by the time she answers. I wish Miranda was coming home aready. I'm glad Chris is coming home. Hopefully things will stay on schedule for homecoming.

I talked to TJ on FB Sunday and sent me a FB message today. Everything is fine. Are that is what he said. He has changed is work hours from 6am to 6pm so it will be hard for me to talk to him.
