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."

Happy to hear it's receeding.  navymom3  We used to have flooding in my town almost every year but just from heavy rain, not hurricanes.  My sailor got back there safely too! 

Comment by navymom3 on June 28, 2012 at 2:54pm

Tee we are doing good here. The lake is almost gone in my backyard. Some of the neighbors down the street still have lakes in there front yard. They say we got about 12-15 inches of rain. Still several roads closed due to high water.

Comment by Tee-1sailor's mom on June 28, 2012 at 1:30pm

Is everyone OK back there???

Comment by Kalynn on June 19, 2012 at 10:37am
You can have it sent to your sailors command. Contact your sailors Ombudsman for the address. Ombudsman are a designated spouse in the command who is acting liaison between the families and the command, they carry a great wealth of information, very resourceful and in an emergency can have you in touch with your sailor in no time at all no matter where they are! It's good to touch base with the ombudsman and give them your contact information cause they typically have a once a month e-mail they send out updating you on the command. Look up your ombudsman at:
https://ombudsmanregistry.org/?m=login
The address may even show on this website too!

Do any Moms out there know if the sailors on base have a physical address. He has only sent a PO address. UPS and Fed Ex will only deliver to a physical address. Thanks.

Comment by Becky on June 8, 2012 at 10:18am

ZZs Mom - Thanks a million. As soon as I get it I will respond. Can't wait to see pics of your daughter's room. Boys don't share so I have to depend on everyone else.

Comment by ZZsMom on June 8, 2012 at 9:35am

Becky, I sent you a friend request.  Once you accept it I will be happy to send you photos of my daughters room.  She isnt aircrew, and if I remember correctly their barracks are a little different, but it will give you a good idea of what your son will have room for. 

Comment by Tee-1sailor's mom on June 7, 2012 at 1:53pm

Emily, if your husband is assigned to a Squadron, there is usually an active Family Support Group where wives and kids get together for activites.  You can find it by Google it online for an offical page and contact the Ombudsman, or do a Facebook search..

Comment by Becky on June 7, 2012 at 11:10am

Thanks one and all for the room information...even about the bed bugs. I hope you all get to see your sailors often.  

Comment by Kalynn on June 7, 2012 at 9:54am
Yes they can have food. They have a fridge and microwave in their room. My hubby's room there a long time ago was a room for 2 alot like a hotel, you walk on and there's a bathroom they share, they each get a closet, a dresser and a twin bed and nightstand. They have to keep it clean for inspections and such. It's recommended to sanitize it and use your own set of sheets cause there isn't really house keeping, and there have been issues with bed bugs. Hope this helps!
