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."

OK, so it didn't work out very well for the picnic. Did you all meet up in Stevens Point? I would like to get together with whomever in some Southeastern area of the State for an early dinner (like the "earlybird special") and light hearted conversation. Any takers? Feel free to email me at ihadabite@aol.com and in the subject line put Navy dinner. It can be lunch instead or breakfast/brunch. Let me know. Have a good week.

I really enjoyed the air and water show today. The Navy had a nice display. I actually made it there while they were still giving away tshirts. We will have to do better planning to indetify each other. There were A LOT of people there today!!
