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."

Good morning shipmates! Well, here we are with 6 days to go. At the beginning with that clock at 50 something days, I didn't know how I was going to make it. We've shared laughter, tears and pride and finally get to share that with our SR's VERY soon. I am very much looking forward to not only PIR and seeing my son, but also giving a hug to the women of 911. I hope you all have a great weekend! Love, hugs and blessings to all!

Awwww, Robyn!!! You went and done it now... the one thing I've read today (at 4:50 PM West Coast time) that brought tears to my eyes! (I guess all the other posts were building me up for this one ... OR, was it rather some dust from my desk that had been blown into my eyes from the air-conditioning?!! Yeah ... that's it!!!) LOL! I don't know where they came from! ;o) I feel such a sense of camaraderie/friendship with you gals already! I can't wait to meet everyone face-to-face! AND ... I surely hope we can keep in touch afterwards!

He can play many different one but we are not sure.
