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 grew up in Center Township, graduated from Center High which has combined with Monaca now. I've still 2 brothers in Aliquippa/Monaca but I'm in Arizona. Doesn't mean I'm not still a Pennsylvania girl! Got my BS from Slippery Rock State College. I work as a park ranger so bounce around the country, am in Arizona right now. Had been in Altoona/Duncansville PA for 16 years previous.

We live just a few miles out of Pittburgh, Linda--I have relatives that live in Rockwood, just outside of Somerset. Good friends have a condo at Seven Springs--the boys enjoy it and this is the first year in a long time that I will miss Winefest. It's always on my birthday weekend. We "girls" usually go up but I guess I'm staying home and cleaning my recruits bedroom out this weekend instead. It's ok, he's worth it and who wants to celebrate turning 51??
