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."

Anyone in Sip 11 Div. 183 please share whenever you get any correspondence. It's good to know that they are able to reach out and if they are getting any reward calls. I hope they all have adjusted now to their surroundings, routines and are enjoying using up all that extra energy these young men have. I know my son can't stay still and he must be nice and busy the way he likes to be.
I can't wait to hear anything from my son as I bet you all are too.
Be Well,
Lisa

Hi Codysmom,
Thats great your son is eating well. Especially because they need to be healthy during all the training they get. I worry about my son he is so picky and wont eat anything he considers unhealthy, He wont eat bread, pork, forget about any sweets, and he won't drink milk. Shopping and cooking for him isn't easy, but now he doesn't have much of a choice and I hope he is eating enough. Thanks for corresponding and keep sharing, it makes me feel so happy to hear from others who have loved ones in my son's division. I've been writing 4 pages to my son everyday, I know he going to say to me cool it mom with the letters.
Please, keep sharing Lisa

You would be surprised how tough they are around us, but you can bet that he will appreciate any letter u send him right now, they feed them healthy meals so im sure he is eating well also. I know its hard for you and has been for me as well, but I know they are making the right decision, we are from a small town and my son knew there wasn't anything here as far as jobs so all we can do is pray for them and support them, they will get by and are probably doing better than we are :)
