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."

Welcome Subwife:) We are here for you if you need us!!!
Sandy, I'm glad you got your call, I was not able to get one from Chris, I didn't think to give him a calling card before he went and We only have cell phones so no "collect calls". Needless to say I was a very sad mom, but I too wrote him every day even if was just a little note, it went in the mail.
Tiramisu.....congratulations!!!!!

Dee: Re: the Blue Star Moms...the other day, I saw a car in a parking lot with a small blue star magnet on it. Do you have any idea where I can get one? I don't live close to any clubs.
Happy news: my son passed RLP last week in Newport...a big relief. :)

Sandy, now she is in the hands of the Navy. Next will be the kid in a box. At three weeks they get a mandatory call home, but they can also 'earn' a call home if their division does well in something. I got a call at 1 week but wasn't expecting it and missed it. I was some upset. The ID on the phone # says pay phone....
And welcome Subwife. I'm glad you posted just to say hello. Our group seems to be growing like crazy lately.
Our group is presently planning a luncheon but we haven't picked a restaurant yet!! LOL. Come on, we can do this!!
