I came across your blog b/c I was searching for info on OPSEC pertaining to a FB page that was started by the GF of an Army Reserve soldier who is currently overseas. My son is also in his platoon. I did not attend the FRG event prior to the deployment, so was not aware of the existence of OPSEC. My first introduction was when I wanted to pass out prayer cards with the soldiers names on them and was told it was against OPSEC rules. Okay, I could appreciate that. Anyway, recently there was an email distributed concerning my son’s platoon advising any infraction of OPSEC rules on the aforementioned FB page would result in discipline, so I started doing some research. This whole website is fascinating, but I have found your blog, in particular, to be very entertaining. I do appreciate what you do, even though I am only now discovering what it is. I’m a former Probation Officer, so do have a sense of keeping under wraps those things that can ultimately cause harm. And I will definitely be paying closer attention to the comments I post on FB. It IS important work you do and I’m sorry I didn’t know all the rules before now. You’re a great writer. Keep it up.

I used to care about that, but not so much anymore.

I do find that if I’m reading a PUBLISHED book, and I catch spelling errors or grammatical mistakes, I can’t help but stare at the same word/sentence for about 5 minutes. During that time I consider contacting the publisher and requesting a recall and a new book. At the end of the 5 minutes, I figure it’s a waste of time and start on the next sentence.

Keep the OPSEC & Fortune Cookie tales coming!!

I know 3 things about you.
Where you live, where you work, and where your kids go to school.
How?
YOUR bumper stickers.

So, Rev, you think you can counter it?

P.S. I told him to knock it off. He did so, and then asked where I worked. DUH! No.
