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."

Merry Christmas! This was my first Christmas without my sailor, Wow I wasn't expecting it to be so hard. He will be home in a few days, so I thought I'd breeze right through it. I was wrong. LOL. I Hope everyone had a great day!

Good to hear!!! My son said the same, they made a stop on the East Coast before the last leg home and he said they were all freezing when they got off the plane to stretch. They thought 70 was cold just a short time ago. lol.
Happy sailors = Happy Moms.

Did get Dunes call tonight, well I just got off the phone with him. He is safe back in the US and happy as can be. lots to do to get settled in. He had to have a place to live as there is no room for them, so he tells me. E-5 are out of there, lol... lucky he had a place all lined up. Freezing, he said he is just freezing but so happy. Mom21 maybe if you want you can let me know who your Son is. Dune was asking me but I told him that we don't even know what each others names are, lol.... Have a wonderful Day everyone!!!

I'm thinking so, at least that's what the grapevine tells me. Have not heard from him yet but I do think they were the last to come back. I think...

Yes, I heard from him last Tuesday. He had to get a new phone, his contract was up while he was away. He was in the first group to get back. He will be home for Christmas. Has Dune come back yet?
