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 don't see mine either and I am feeling sad too. At least it's 075. I am also very happy that you can see your sons.

Awww, I'm sorry. I'm not trying to make anyone sad. I realize we can't possibly see even the majority of the SRs.

Don't feel sad, we are gonna with Trivia Tuesday. I just know it. That way everyone can see their son. Just remember they know we are communicating so they are very happy about that. 27 days from today and we will all be there waiting to wrap our arms around them and give them the biggest hugs ever.
My son looks like the shortest in the bunch. LOL

I didn't get to see my SR either. It's a great pic! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Going to my Mom's house for Superbowl food. Can't stand Madonna, so that will give me a reason to eat. So happy some of you got to see your SR. Ladies, we are on the downhill on this adventure. 4 weeks from yesterday. Sounds better than the 8-10. We will survive!

So is your mom as good a cook as you are? (Based on what your SR said about the food at BC!) I agree...it's a great pic!

Oh yea, my Mom , my SR's Grandmother, can cook. Our family has always been cooks. Since my Dad dies, she doesn't do as much as she used to. The same thing I am learning since my SR left. I bought just a half gallon of milk the other day.
We are staying at the Ramada Inn. Using their shuttle. In my SR's letter, he said that first thing after PIR, he wants to come back to the hotel and take a nice long shower. Then the first meal is pizza. He didn't mention dinner. My SR joked that once he got settled in his career, I would fly where ever he is and play dinner party for his friends for a weekend!
I am planning on writing a play by play log on tonights Super Bowl and then mail it tonight as well. Ladies, have a great day!
