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."

Did someone mention 12 steps? Ha1
You know you're addicted to N4M when you get on during a break at work and just can't get off until you have read ALL the posts and when the phone rings (& it's your job to answer it) you think to yourself - ah well, if it's important they'll call back! DUH! Guilty as charged! I so have to learn more self control - tee hee hee
I just remind myself -there are worse things!

My husband mentioned a 12 step program but he said that we could never do it because first, we have to admit that we have a problem. (Problem, what problem?) LOL!
