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."

Oh. Well I hope you get a letter today! I'm trying to stay positive and just think they haven't had their mail guys trained well enough yet. I hope they got all of our letters though.

My son is ship 14 div 26 and I haven't gotten a phone call or a personal letter. I jump everytime the phone rings. I'm disappointed with the mailman. I am just a nervous wreck. I know he's fine, but I want to hear from him so badly. This is awful!

Seriously. The mailman is potentially my best friend, but at the moment my worst enemy. This is terrible!!

Unfortunately my son was sent to ship 5 after he passed out when he finished the swim test. He said there were a bunch of guys in his division (ship 014 div 026) that were acting up so they were on mail restrictions. I think he went to ship 5 Friday or Saturday. He called me from ship 5 yesterday and said they weren't allowed to write because of some jerks that wouldn't work as a team. That may be why some of you haven't received any letters.

My boyfriend said the same thing--a lot of the SRs were being really disrespectful, so all their mail was held. He finally got my letters (they took forever to get to him), but so far I've received 3 sets of letters from him.

I'm glad you received your letters today. I hope I get one soon. It will definitely make my day. Hopefully I get one tomorrow. Did your SR mention what week they're in by any chance?
