OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

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."

What if we all ordered the shirts or scarfs and wore them to the meet n greet so we would know who we are?

That sounds like a great idea. I will sure do that.

My husband and I decided not to wear scarves for a couple of reasons. First, we will be indoors and no one will see them. Second, we live south of Atlanta and will probably never wear them again. Third, neither he nor our son will wear them.
I am trying to talk them into ribbons (I think they will do that) so I will order blue with gold lettering with the division number on them.
We will be going to Sarge's (they don't have a choice - mom is in charge when we get there, lol).
I am pretty sure we will be staying at the Candlewood Suites. My brother-in-law can get us friends and family rates, however, they are non-refundable so I am waiting until my husband's parents to get back from their Fiji cruise early next week to see if I should book a room for them or not.
27 1/2 days until we see our Sailors!

My husband won't wear a scarf either, but my daughter and I will. It will make it easier for you to find us. :)

I'll be easy to find. I'll send you my phone number in a private message.
