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 was planning on this weekend being the last for letters. Even though my SR said he'll be in GL an additional 10 to 20 days after pIR, I don't know if you use the same address or not.
I wasn't home for the trivia today, sorry. Just a few more days left, though...Yay!

Robin, Does the computer you are using have Adobe Reader? The form is in Adobe. Mine printed without a problem. If you do have Adobe Reader (it's free to download if you don't), I think there was information to get help on the site.

Hi Terri,
Look forward to meeting you! I will be at the meet and greet too. I didn't think about wearing the red scarves that night. That's a good idea.

Hi Terri! Welcome.How'd you hear about us? Is your SR hoping to be an AR or SWCC? I don't think we'll make the Meet & Greet because our flight gets in kind of late, but I am looking forward to seeing everyone in their red scarves a week from Friday.
