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."

Holy Smokes there are tons of us at the residence inn :)
Yup, I will be~somewhat~early to bed. however a nitecap before bed would be nice - seeing people mention 10ish? My body clock will be on CA time, so hope I can get to sleep!

Molly how many people for the picture? Hopefully lighting is good. Almost there!
Staying there too!
Hey Danielsmom,
I will also be at the Residence Inn with my husband and son, and would love to meet some NavyMoms!
Pam
I think we should all meet in the lounge
Hi Ladies,
My group will also be staying at the residence. I would love to have our own little lounge party after Flanagan's in the lounge. That would be so much fun. Maybe we could leave room numbers or cell phone numbers with each other somehow so we don't advertise them to the world. Any ideas?
Pauline
I'm in!! We should hit the lounge!
I am ready for a nitecap right now....and it is almost 5pm. Guess that makes it margaritaville time!
Good idea pp38coco, we can have someone be a private contact (we don't want to post the numbers for the world to see, just think how many crank calls and telemarketers we'll get!!) . People who want to participate can provide cell numbers (since we don't have room numbers until we check in) and then turn around and send a message back to everyone.

If you want me to do it, and we are not already friends, please ask me to be your friend and give me the cell #. Those who are already my friend can just send me a private note. I'll compile them after a couple days and then shoot them back out to everyone who sent me one along with mine.

If someone else wants to volunteer, that is fine too!

I went under the "meet and Greet" disc. and was able to get name tag info on everyone except, Jr's mom, Herrod 90, Jr's mom and Gayle. Either every one can wear there name tags back or I can make up some for us at the hotel. I'll be happy to give you my cell # I'll email it to you.
We are staying there...........
Melissa
Lets just wear our name tags and and decide to meet at 10 to 11 pm in the lounge. (does anyone know when the lounge closes)
