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'm definately interested in attending this breakfast. Is the date of Sept 1 definite? Also - I'm recently unemployed and do have some time for volunteering on this event. I'm also in touch with a number of parents for the local USNA chapter and former USNA parents like myself. I'll get in touch with them. I'm sure they would be interested. Send me a private message and I can get you my contact info.

Ohio51, I put you down on the list to come and I"ll keep you updated. Yes Sept 1 is definite but I don't have a time or place yet I'll let you know. Also, if you get any RSVP's from the other groups your are contacting let me know so I can give the Lt. a count.
If you are interested in volunteering for Cincinnati events, I was really wanting to have a table set up with brochures for Navy4moms and I hadn't gotten them yet but the LT. said we could set up a table for Navy4Moms at some of the events and pass out brochures. I will be in town the weeknights after I get off work but I was thinking of having a table at riverfest next to the Navy. Would you be interested in that? -

Ohio51 did you get my message I sent? Please see the above posted info now that is definite. I need to hear from you with your name, where you are from, your son or daughters name, rank and duty station and any question you may want to give to the Admiral to get the most up to date info to share with us.

The Lt. set this as a firm date today of Thursday Sept 1 at 7:45 am to 9 and I am looking for a place for us to meet for the breakfast downtown and will get that wrapped up and let you all know where as soon as I have that also.
