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."

Pam, Part of it depends upon who is in the chat room at the time you wish to chat. If it doesn't work out, we can delete it. I just thought perhaps we could chat ... things that really may not "belong" on the message board. We'll see.

Hi Dori, Sounds good to me. Do my friends just put there names on the list and then we can chat? I just think it is a great ideal if I can get my friends to start using it. Thanks! luv ya your friend Pam (Alexis step-mom)

Pam, When you enter here, it will assign a name to you ... something silly. Try entering a message to make sure who you are. Then cliick on that ID on the right. This will bring up a menu. There you can put in the name you want, e.g., Pam. From then on when you enter a place that has a Xat chat box, your name will pop up.
The nice thing about this chat box is that it will have those of us who are interested in Moms of Daughters. I suspect that someone not a member of the group could chat with us but I doubt that will happen. Do remember that anyone can see what is being chatted about. It is not really a private chat. -

Check out the chat box in the Pensacola A School Group. They use it all the time for the chatting that doesn't need to be on the board.
