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."

I don't understand why they are not getting their mail. Molly do you think the RDC's are holding it? I wish the next 5 weeks would just pass.
Kim I just checked and I have not had one single response.
Well, I'm back to the hospital working a double shift, you girls have a good night.

Good morning Emptynest
I haen't heard of the security thing before. That is interesting, I know Daniel had a ticket in January but went to traffic school an dthe judge told us it was off his record so Daniel did not report it, when he got to MEPS it was na issue becuse it was on his background. So maybe it something like that?
Proud of Jordan I love the name Isabel!

Anyone up? Can't sleep, I hate this not sleeping.
Proud of Jordan, I don't understand why they are not getting our letters either. I've heard that the RDC's don't want them focusing on home, so maybe they hold them, I really have kn idea. But I have written dailey sine the 15th. You just keep on writing when he does get them he'll be in heaven. Didin't yousay you were expecting? I'm sorry if I'm wrong, but if so when are you due. My neice had a baby girl last Friday. sooo cute.

I would like to help with something like that. What kind of things did you pack into the boxes? How did you pick who they would go to?

You know ladies as I sit here and drink my coffee and read everyones comments. Our kids (boys and girls) are so lucky to have moms who love them so much. Can you imagine how terrible it would be to be a rectuit and not have anyone love and worry about call or letter. You know their are plenty of those kids there.
Alli your letter will come, it will and its going to be a wonderful letter, I promise.

Congrats to Erin and Kitty, it sure does help the hearts of us moms to see the written word that they are ok. But Molly and Alli notice that all of us have had good letters...... our kids are okay and yours too. More letters will come and you will see they will say the same things. Food is good RDC's are tough, and they are making new friends. Everyones letter have said all these things right? We love you and I bet you get a letter tomorrow.
