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'm still here. My sailor just finished C School last week and is now near Norfolk, attached to the USS Theodore Roosevelt, which is being retrofitted for the next two years. Today is his first day of induction so hopefully he'll find out what he'll be doing for the next two years, since he won't be doing what he has been training for, for the last 9 months. I mostly follow Maureen's FB page but check here when I see messages posted.

Present and accounted for. My Sailor is in San Diego aboard the USS Carl Vinson. Due to go back out on deployment the end of the year. I check in often to see if anyone new is here.
Bella is only active on FB.
Kelsi-as an ex-navy wife, I hope you have made some great new friends among the Stennis FRG. They will become your lifeline during this time. We are always here, too. Each time we got to a new duty station my circle got bigger but like here and on FB, I feel like everytime one of "our" sailors move on, it is a new adventure for me, too.
