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."

Ugh!!. I am so upset because I'll be flying most of that day on the 15th. I wrote in his letters that he'll have to probably leave a voice message. So sad!!! I was hoping for the 14th.

I would keep that phone handy on the afternoon of the 14th, just in case. At this point, looks like only one division is going on Monday night....so there is room for 257/258 to go with them....but haven't heard that is when they go. But phones handy Tues -- because you never know! :-)
