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."

I pray you were able to avoid some of that flooding that Atlanta area experienced lately.It seem a rule in Ga if you look back over the years, drought then deluge then drought again! Always said it was so many people praying, every one has been praying for rain over the past few years but all the prayers got answered at once. (ha ha) We have same problem in Sav'h area (I'm actual in Rincon, just outside) Just last year the farmers were going under because of lack of rain, this year, everything's too wet!
Personally, my flower garden has done better than for years. I just wonder when they are going to take those penalty charges for the drought off our water bills. -

B. J. has bronchitis. They moved back his battle stations day to next Wednesday. If he is not any better will they allow him to call us to let us know not to fly up to Chicago. Or do they make us wait until Thursday morning (when we are supposed to arrive). I am sick to my stomach. We spent so much money on tickets and my dad is driving up there just for this ceremony. He is also supposedly grad and go. He is saying that he would have about 2 hours with us. So now we don't if maybe we should plan on coming back early (if we can).
