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."

We will all be there with you Michelle sitting on top of those pins.
I think Traci just flew over my house. LOL! I hope she puts her phone on the moment she lands.
I cannot get away from my laptop. I keep checking FB RTC page and PIR 4/8 to see if anyone received a phone call yet.
I was cleaning and I suddenly heard a faint noise coming from my iPhone. I thought, OMG it's ringing and I did not notice it. Did I miss the call. Nope,,,, it was only my itunes playing. I must have bumped it.
This is so nerve racking. Kind of like waiting on news that a baby is about to be born.
