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."

Dee, thank you so much for everything. he note home was not good, just don't know what to do. I'm so afraid she's going to "break" I don't understand, She is so independent and strong, this was her dream. Hoping its just the no contact thing Thank you for keeping Lillian in your prayers, I will do the same for you. I will stay involved with BSM don't you worry, Lilly is Ship 11 Div 121, Again, thank you Dee, you are a gift from God.

Sandy...(((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))) I think once you hear from her you will do better. It's the first few weeks that are the toughest because you don't know how they are doing. Once you start getting letters and phone calls from her you will do better, but it still is a rough road....sorry. It's like birthing pains all over again....lol... when you see her again she won't be the little girl she will be a woman, a Navy Sailor. Hang on mom....

thank you,
I will put her info.up when i get it. just wish the ups and downs would slowdown some. i get upset over small things and everyone is now running to hide when they see it starting...lol it does get better ...right?

Wow, the box. Still have Jonathans. I now put his other stuff...papers, mail, etc. in it. The 'letter' should come very soon. I think I got mine the same day. And yes, please Sandy and Lil's mom we would love to write so please do share the addresses...it would be great if they were in the same ship/div....have to wait and see...lol

i will thank you Lisa

Sandy, I don't know what to say as I never got the "box" Chris for some reason didn't have one he only went with what was on him and was kept there. But the box is one more step closer to graduation which is the most unbelieveable thing you could ever imagine. When you get an address let us know and we will write as well, one thing we are all good at doing.
and Lil's mom please do the same, we would love to write to her. Chin up it does get better:)

Lil's mom...was thinking of you today...passing through Epping way to my daughters dance comp....soooooooo glad to hear from you. I was somewhat concerned that we hadn't heard from you....and then I missed Lil's send off party. Soo sorry. I know what you are going through is really tough...we are there with you. (((((((((HUGS)))))))))
