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."

Im really sorry for the over reaction.... i was having a bad night and aunt flow was visiting (lol i love that saying) Now that i look at the picture i can see what you mean, they look like fish nets but you have to understand they look so different in person. I was just upset that everyone else had been getting all positive reactions and i was the only one that was getting any negative ones. Once again i am sorry for my over reaction.

They probably do look different in person. But I really do love your dress. I love a similar red one. :)
I understand... We all have those days/nights.
Just wanted to make sure that what I said wasn't taken the wrong way. I wasn't calling you a slut, I was just saying that it could give a lot of people the wrong impression.Your sailor really will love whatever you wear. :)

Oh my goodness, I want it!!!! I can't sew or be awesome, but that is so cute! All of you have such adorable outfits. I haven't even thought about what to wear. I should start doing that, but I DID get my hair done today, to look a little more sophisticated than it was. :)

Oh man I don't know what to wear! I really want to look good for him! My hubby's PIR is 7/8 so it should be pretty warm up there, yeah?
And I'll be 5 months pregnant... hmmmm -

I got this at Motherhood. It's really comfy, the waist is elastic, so it'll still fit next month, and it was only $25
