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."

denurse, welcome to Navy 4 Moms. We have some great groups in Nor Cal.
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/centralvalleycanavymoms
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/Momsofthe209
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/northerncalifornianavymoms
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/sfbayareanavyfamilies
These are the four groups in Northern CA. Feel free to join as many as you want. The 209 groups seems inactive. The San Fran and Nor Cal/Sac groups are fairly active. Remember if you are getting too many email notifications from groups you have joined, you can always click "Stop Following" to eliminate that.
In addition, here is a link to a meet and greet in Petaluma on Jan 9, 2011. You are most welcome to come (husband and family invited).

I am so sad that I can't be with you all today. I thought I could get all my work done before this morning but I didn't. I feel like I am missing a family reunion.
Enjoy the appetizers.
With love, BunkerBee
