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."

Yes Mary, the one in Keller will be at the Main St. Cafe. I'll get to meet some of the gals from the Kemah gathering, Galveston, and Spring Old Town gathering. I didn't make the Parade in Ft. Worth so this will be an opportunity to meet all the Navy moms from my home town. I'm so excited!

LOL. NO. But I think Brenda may be comin to pick me up :- +
PS. shell, better you than me! I hate the cold. We had some snow in chattanooga (21 inches)
got snowed in, and had to stay with next door neighbors in their basement they had a wood stove. Patrick sled down a vacant lot and I think he may have skidded down the lot -over the road and onto the yard across the road. (very very hilly)

I remember the year of the big snow storm CCR, we lived on top of an incredible hill. All the kids gathered and made sleds out of some of the silliest things but what a great day everyone had.
