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."

It sure is quiet on the wall tonight. Is everyone busy PACKING? Haha

After doing Battle Stations all night and waiting for a phone call we are all exhausted!


We went out to eat tonight to celebrate.

I'm not packing but I didn't get home from work until after 10 California time so I'm just now logging on.  I am tired though, I didn't sleep well last night, I kept dreaming I was going to miss the phone call. lol

Congratulations to all the new Sailors in divison 060!  we just returned from Great Lakes (Sunday)  it was amazing!  We are so proud of all of them and all the new Sailors.   We loved every minute of the weekend  our new Sailor was so happy to see us we had a great weekend!  Enjoyed meeting some of the parents from division 060.  Hope you all had a great weekend with your new Sailor! 

WOW! I got such a great report from my family on PIR. All agreed they are very happy they went. "Wouldn't have missed it for the world"! 

I stayed back as my daughter was in Divisional wrestling tournament AND an added bonus was, My oldest son's wife had a little boy on Friday and I was able to be there! PLUS, my birthday was Sunday. This weekend will be hard to top in my life! 

So happy for all of you who were able to go and witness your Loved ones PIR and spend time with them. A special memory.
