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."

Ship04 Div 811 EOD! I received 3 letters from my son today! They were dated March 17th, March 18th, and March 25th. In the letter dated March 25th (Sunday) he stated that they were told that they might get to make a call next week! He had not received any of my letters. He was doing well, he said the moral of the unit was good, but that he thought that all 84 members were homesick! Hope everyone receives their letters soon! :)

Those are the same names my son, Alejandro told me. Also with a Taylor from Colorado.....which I think is your son? If that is your son my son said his birthdate is 13 the day before his.
I got mine- I got mine!!! Letter that is...well, my husband had to read it first, with our daughter, before I got home, and it's one page....but I still got one. Don't think that he has received anything I've sent yet tho'. &-(
thank you addy. I was so excited and so hopeful that other moms got one as well from their SR so it didn't seem like bragging. Maybe we should start sending letters to each other when a letter is not received.????
Yes, my son is Taylor from Denver, and his birthday is the 13th, so glad met you supernavymom, what is your son going to do for Navy, mine is EOD
