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."

fingers crossed that DaniesMom and I get our much needed phone calls to put our minds at ease.
Bettyboop - no word yet. The last call I got was on Sat when she called and said that she failed the final PFA. She had yesterday and if needed Weds. to pass the test and move onto Battlestations. Same with DaniesMom.
DaniesMom - how are you doing today? Praying for her! Hugs to you.

Thank you Jessiesmom. I am feeling so broken. I posted above that she called last night and did not pass again. Please see that post from me. I need to hold her SO badly. How are you holding up my friend?

Oh no. I prayed so hard for our girls. I did receive the phone call last night as well, she is in FIT and will have another shot on Monday and Weds next week. If she still struggles then she is in FAT for 2 weeks. I am going to be sending out a card and I would really like to send one to your daughter as well. I just joined FIT group.
I am sending you a hug. Hang in there, we will get to hold our babes soon. When she passes, and I find out her flight info, we are going to take a drive and go to the airport and see her. That is my plan anyway.
The man upstairs must have a plan for our girls. May not be the one we wanted or the one they want, but we are strong and we will prevail this set back.
Hang in there my friend. Please send me a message if you will allow me to send her a card. I would love to do that.

Thank you SO much! I would love it if you sent her a card. She has been moved to the Recovery Division now though, and didn't yet have the address to send to us. But she now gets to write every day she said and will send us her new address asap. May I send that to you as soon as I get it? I'm so sorry you can't see Jessie right now either, but am so glad that you can go and see her at the airport when she does leave. I am going to send you a friend request in hopes that you will also let me send a card to Jessie and provide me her contact information. Thank you for offering to do this. It means a lot to me. My heart hurts knowing it is likely going to be MONTHS now before I can see her!! Thank you for the prayers my friend.
