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 sorry to say I haven't gotten a call either. In fact, I got fewer letters this week than usual. My daughter said that she will using most of her time to study with testing coming up this week. she was worried about not writing, wanting to answer my letters. It doesn't appear that we will get a call until maybe next week or so. They are all in my thoughts and prayers. Keep us posted!

sailormom that's a great price on the scarves! I already bought a yellow one though, oh well. Me and my other daughter will be wearing one. I don't know how many people are going to wear them. I hope 145 does too.

I just purchased a bright yellow scarf on Amazon last night. Thanks sailormom for the info. Has anyone received a phone call? I heard that some of the divisions were supposed to get phone calls today, so I was hoping for one. But not yet. Only 19 days left. I can't wait!
