Musings, leadership tidbits and quotes posted by a retired Navy Captain (really just a high performing 2nd Class Petty Officer) who hung up his uniform a bit too early. He still wears his Navy service on his sleeve. He needs to get over that. "ADVANCE WARNING - NO ORIGINAL THOUGHT!" A "self-appointed" lead EVANGELIST for the "cryptologic community". Keeping CRYPTOLOGY alive-one day and Sailor at a time. 2015 is 80th Anniversary of the Naval Security Group.
Some of you have asked if uniform was authorized for wear by retirees. For those interested (and those of you who can still get in your uniform), answer is YES; following is verbiage from Uniform Regulations.
"Retired personnel may wear uniforms at ceremonies or official functions when the dignity of the occasion and good taste dictate. Wearing a uniform is appropriate for memorial services, weddings, funerals, balls, patriotic or military parades, ceremonies in which any active or reserve United States military unit is participating, and meetings or functions of military associations."
Uniform for this event is Dinner Dress Blue Jacket. Covers not required.

What is the significance of 76th anniversary?
I do not recall a 69th, 70th, 71st, 72nd, 73rd, 74th or 75th.
I thought the community went away when Andy Singer left.
Sounds interesting -- is this open to the retired community?? Officer and enlisted?? If so, should we pass the word? V/R
