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."

My favorite letter.....♥
Normally I don’t share all the mushy stuff in my letters, but this one absolutely made my heart melt……
Jan 12, 2011
“Hey Beautiful,
I love you, and hope everything is going well for you. I got a new picture I sleep with now, and she is very beautiful, and makes me want to come home. If you have not figured it out yet I got the card you sent me with the wedding pic of just you looking absolutely breathtaking. All the guys say I’m lucky and that your beautiful. I tell them I wouldn’t be married otherwise, but that’s just male boasting. I don’t love you just for your beauty, but for everything about you. The way you get frustrated when things don’t go perfectly, then you come to me for help. The softness of your skin, the blue of your eyes. Remember at Disney world when your camera died, and you started breaking down on me, then I jumped into action and saved the day with my quick thinking. I love that more than you know… it makes me feel useful. Like I am your knight in shinning armor ready to save the day anytime my fair lady is in distress. We were made for each other. Like two pieces of a puzzle, like yin and yang, seperate we function, but together we preform great things. I love you so very much and cant wait to hold you agian.
Love forever and Always, Tim”
This is the picture I had sent Tim…. the one hes talking about in the letter…..♥

aww... thanks girls for the kind words! I never thought I was pretty until I met Tim, and he tells me everyday how "beautiful" I am. I feel very lucky to have him as my husband and I am so very proud to call him my husband! I cant wait to see him again!
