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."

There should be a Family Readiness Group or a Family Support Group. Ask the Ombudsman for information about it. I seem to remember the last time Chicago pulled in off deployment there were banners EVERYWHERE.

Hey girl, I am a wife of what your hubby on the sub would call a "surface puke". I have sent you a friend request, and would be happy to help you find more of us Navy Wives around the island.

Sonar: I've looked into that but haven't really found out anything. Also, I have no idea who is or how to find the ombudsman. I don't if if it's just my husband but he can't (or won't/forgets) to ask questions that I ask him.
Marla: Lol, have never heard the term surface puke before! Accepted your request, would love some help in meeting some wives around the island. Thanks! -

I think it may be harder for Nuke wives. My husband is also on the Chicago, but he has a lot more time than a Nuke would...meaning we go out more and meet other people more. Hang in there, all the wives I've met so far are very friendly! Also, there is a family readiness group tomorrow at 630pm. Unfortunately I don't know where it's at, there may be some information on a website somewhere, but I'm just going because my friend is on the board or something. Our ombudsman is Chief Sullivan's wife, Rebekah. I'll message you her facebook.

I think it may be at the Catlin Park Community Center. That's where it was in April anyways, and that's the only information I could find about it.
