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'm so disappointed!  Something came up and I can't attend the Meet and Greet tomorrow.  :-(  I'll be thinking of you all and wishing I was there.

I have been planning on coming but knew I might have a hang up, because my husband works out of town and is only home on the weekends. And now I won't be able to make. I hope I get to get together with some N4M's soon. I am really thinking I need it!!

If you are coming to the FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS Meet & Greet and Packing Party on Sat., Sept 21st, please RSVP for our restaurant count.  Also, need everyone to bring their goodies to pack, a box of quart and gallon ziplock type bags, and 2-5 large military flat rate packing boxes.  My email refuses to go through to the USPS to order more boxes, and it won't let me re-set for new password. 

Thanks--looking forward to seeing you!   Carol
