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."

Hey Phoebee,
I am not going to make it. I haven't been feeling well all week and just pushing through at work. I really need to just sleep on Saturday and get through this bug. I am so sorry, I was really looking forward to seeing everyone. Give lots of hugs for me.
Please tell everyone we are packing on January 10. I will get something posted early next week.
Miss you my friend,
Chris

Well it was just Kathy and I this morning for coffee. Sure missed all of you but Kathy and I had a nice talk. Because no one else showed up we left at 10. Hope we didn't miss anyone coming late. Here's hoping you all have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Oops, I missed getting on the Navy Mom's site because my computer has been messed up. In addition my daughter Tatiana who usually helps me with the driving, took a last minute trip to Albuquerque, NM to catch Amtrak to Los Angeles to visit California cousins. She did not get a break last summer since she was in summer classes at Mines. One of her brother's Aunties asked her to come visit...so she went! She should be back before Christmas if she can get over Raton Pass between snow storms. Sorry I missed you this month. See you in January! Happy Chanukah, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year everyone!
