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."

Hubs has been telling me when he gets my letters and what their date is. From what I can tell my mail takes 4 days to get to him. I'm in WA. I plan to stop writing Friday before we leave.

This is what I could find when I did a quick search on Hall of Fame and PIR and this is what I found
https://www.netc.navy.mil/nstc/news_page_2011_07_01.asp
Looks like it an award for the top DIV. that would be exciting! Funny cause hubs didn't tell me that, he's been telling me he's going to come out "with all these gray hair from the stress of these young kids" LOL -

That's so funny! At his age, you don't think about being the *old guy*. I hope they make it. That would be awesome.

Thank you ProudNavyWife! I was wondering about the phone calls. My son is not a writer...and that's OK because i know he is able to rest instead. So I'm glad to hear from other SR's through all you. Thank you!
