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 missed my SRs call today. Would have loved to know if he was told when he would fly out to P-Cola so I could change my reservations if need be. Having extra time with him would be so nice.

Got a letter today from my Son. I thought I would share that he said he is glad his division is like a brotherhood, he wouldn't make it if they weren't. Their motto is "One Division, One Family". Awesome!!

So have your phone handy at all times and get that volume crank up for that (847#) still makes me nervous when i see that number flash on my screen hoping it's good news. GOD Bless our SRs!!! Hooyah to all
Cuptain's cup should be the following saturday after that

Received a letter today written on Sunday, Oct 28. Did not mention the big day. Had tear gas on Friday (said that was like sticking your face in a bucket of Fire in the Hole sauce from Pluckers) and this week would include final tests and inspections. Possible calls home on Thursday or Friday if the division did well. No promises.
We've almost made it through this thing!!!!! Hang on everyone.

I got a letter from my son yesterday. He says if his division does well (370) then he will get to make calls tomorrow afternoon. I'm crossing my fingers.
