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."

Hi, when I spoke to my son last week he did mention that they would be changing ships. He wasn't sure when that was supposed to happen and to which ship.

My son is on Ship 12, Div 003. My son told me last week that they are moving to another ship. Another mom told me tonight that they are moving tomorrow. I didn't hear from my son this week.

My son is Ship 12 Div 004. During Last week's phone call he told me they were moving on Sat the 19th to Ship 9 USS John F Kennedy and should start addressing mail there right before then. I started today. Other mom's on the FB page have received the exact same info. So it's almost the same:

My son is Ship 12, Div 004. I don't see that much information regarding Div 004, so I am soo glad to see your post regarding the move to the new ship. I missed the call that came through last week b/c my cell phone died on a field trip with my 10 year old. When I got home and plugged the phone in and realized that I had missed his call - I lost my breath.....I haven't heard his voice since the first phone call 3 weeks ago. I haven't hear anything on graduation either yet... Have you heard that Div 004 will be graduating on 11/15? I'm sooo grateful to see a post from another person with a child in Div 004! Thank you!
