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."

we have changed our reservations to the Hampton in Gurnee. it is 5 min from the base. We are going to the meet and greet that Sarge is putting on. My parents will be with me and my husband and daughter, plus my ex-husband and his mom. I just found out that my sister and her two boys will be at the hotel with my husbands brother and mother. Not sure how this will all end. LOL.

haha no kidding! We are sharing with my parents, my daughter is staying with my sister and her little ones (they can't wait to see their cousin in her uniform - they are 7 and 5) my ex and his mom will share a room, my brother-in-law and his wife will share a room with my mom-in-law. Yep. But early to bed, early to rise for me and 3 others. LOL
Where are you staying at?

Well, no letter for me today. I cried, I felt hurt and I just wanted to go lay down on my bed and feel sorry for myself. I had a moment of selfishness I guess. At least my other daughter got a letter today. Apparently, my SR had to eat dinner with the guys because she had laundry duty. She said that there are some pretty nice looking guys and she said that they looked at her and strutted their stuff. Crack me up. She told my parents in their letter to that they needed to watch the paper for graduation. None of us understand what that means. Does anyone know?

Oh my gosh, that is so funny about the guys. I'm curious what that means about watching the paper.
Is she 076 or 075? My son is 076. -
