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."

You sure could come over. It really isn't a garden just a spot we needed to clean up but I have space we could have some wine and a fire and relax. It would be so much fun.

I just got an email from mine but it was pictures of his house him and his buddies got just before they left. It is so nice. It has a great view from the porch. I am so happy for him. I am praying since they are out now that he will be there in July when we get there.
Msvines glad you got a brief call and lots of emails. I know what you mean about not saying a lot because mine is like that too. Even when he is not on the ship.
Well I hope you guys all have a wonderful Easter.
We planted a ton of things in the yard in the last week or so. We had an area where there was a ton of river rock. Hubby and I cleaned it all out, and let me tell ya there was a ton of it. So we planted 2 rodadendrum, one white and a red one. An Azellia bush, daisies, daylillies, tulips, and some other kind of lillies. Not sure if I spelled some of those flowers wrong. LOL. So we were very busy today.

Msvines, I know really did they call their mothers and wives and girlfriends to see if it was okay for them to leave so soon after their deployment? LOL. Doesnt the Navy realizes they need to call us and ask us first, HA HA HA. I guess not.
I haven't hear from mine again yet. I hope I do and hopefully he is on land the next time.

That is okay Brenda, we have all done that, LOL. I know I forget who too sometimes to put my comment too. I have to look back and see A LOT of times! LOl. He said there maybe a rumor going around that he may be there now. So let's pray THAT rumor is true.
Yes let's have safe return for all of sailors. I did get an email from today but it just said about his apartment him and some of his friends got the day before they left. He is excited to get back and move in too. He said he would send me pictures of it when it is furnished too. I told him to send me and address too, I have Easter stuff for him.

Hi Mary, sorry to hear about the bad timing for your trip. I was a travel agent for 18 years, and I know once you buy the tickets, you are stuck, they will charge a change fee, and price difference. I bought mine when he was still in gulf. We emailed him and his wife in PH. He told me to buy them. I am hearing it will not be to long this time. Mine has been in since he was 21, 11 years now. I will pray for you and all the other moms who are worried like me, just want them home safe.
