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."

SomebodysMom: No doubt that "hurting" one was the peanut butter shot! It is BIG and they have to roll around on their hip to disperse the thick substance afterwards. Yuck!

Hoping everyone starts seeing pics of their sons. My sons pic was on the first round. He called me last sunday evening and said he was getting all four wisdom teeth pulled. Yikes!!! Hoping to hear from him soon.

I just received a letter from my son yesterday that was postmarked June 2.
Thanks mammabird, because I got a whole page of absolutely nothing :). He wrote on it for 6 different days, he placed each date with one or two sentences.... And he even wrote the word "Umm" at one point! Lol
I too often learn more about my son by listening to what others are saying!

Great story, mammabird!

Good Morning!

Happy Friday!

A recruit must be trained to handle the mail before mail can be delivered, this can take a couple of weeks sometimes.
Mail can also be delayed if it is received before the recruit is trained. That mail is "set aside" and is sorted after the current days mail is done. It can take a few days to get caught up.
