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."

Well, let's try to coordinate a meeting. How about February 22nd? Do you want to meet downtown Pittsburgh? There is a great new restaurant right at the Convention Center called Ten Penny. (http://www.thetenpenny.com/). Really cool atmosphere and has a brunch menu in Saturday and Sunday.

Or maybe Station Square?
Or do you want to meet out towards Monroeville.

Everyone start chiming in so we can get a date and a place on the calendar.

WoW, if I only remembered what a FIASCO it is to find the right one! :(  Glad I only have to bed shop every 8-10 years!!! :P  But now that I think of it....I DID just shop for my bed 6-yrs ago :P
Besides that....the weather has been soooooooooooo unpredictable lately :(
