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."

I fianaly got my coins ordered. Ordered the RTC and the ship 03. I probably will order ribbons tomorrow.
Yay! For letters jorgesmom! Did your SR say if passed the firs PFA? Both mine and beertjes failed the first try. He said 70% of the Div failed - No worries, they'll get it!
Time to get ready for work- :( -

I agree to replying in the top box so you don't have to sift through all the others messages.
Yes ship 3 is the Hopper coin :)
I was going to run to the store, but when my husband said I'll stay in case we get a call a changes my mind. If we both leave we will forward the home phone to our cell.
Are any of you practicing your dance moves to "In The Navy" for the contest at Sarges Mees and Greet?!! They choose 3 from each DIV and the winner gets a T-shirt -

Ya! Phone call FINALLY!! Poor kid is sick though and worried he won't pass the PFA - he couldn't because he couldn't breath, pneumonia symptoms. He did go to medical so hope he gets better. Ladies, tell your boys to give him some encouragement and push him to pass that PFA!

He didn't say specifically what they did for pink eye. The usual thing is eye drops. He did say they have him 6 different medications. He wears glasses, so I hope they told him to clean them regularly. (Mom moment) he said several people have it, they probably got it from shooting the guns last week. (?)
