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."

No, I have not received anything from the Osbudman. Would you please forward the information about the Tiger Cruise to me?
Thank you so much for the hotel information.
We will be at the Meet & Greet and will let you know of the total number soon.

The meet & greet sounds like fun. We are coming from Baton Rouge, so we hope to be there. We're trying to decide about flying or driving. Does anyone have any ideas on hotels? Also, any details about the Tiger Cruise? My younger son would like to go. Look forward to meeting y'all in Norfolk.

I was at the last meeting and here is what was passed about the Tiger Cruise:
Each sailor can have to 2 tigers, age limit 8 years old
Cost 50-60 dollars per tiger, they will fly down to NC the day before homecoming
no spouses or signifigant others
If it is a male sailor and he would like to bring a female onboard he has to find a female to sponsor her
The sailor is the one who has to request the Tigers and fill out paper work
All things are subject to change per CMC

Brevard County is where Cape Canaveral, Kennedy Space Center and Cocoa Beach is at. Gotta love the sound of a shuttle rumbling your windows at liftoff.
