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."

DIVISION 021 INFORMATION UPDATE :) Last thursday (the 1st was marlinspike) And last friday was their second PFA test. with personnel and weapons inspection after that. Monday (the 5th) was their virtual gunfire training with a Zone inspection, and Tuesday (6th) was Live Fire. Yesterday was a practice day and Today Is their second major test and a drill inspection. My fiance says he is worried about the drill inspection because its a group based event and he is worried about the div as a whole. :) Hope this helps anyone. He wrote on thursday that it was week 1 day 1, and on sunday he wrote week 1 day 1 hold. So Assume by now its the very end of week 4. :)

No letter today from my son. Have only gotten 1 so far from him other than the Thanksgiving letter & form letter. Only call has been the "I'm here" call. He is div 21. Are they doing ok? I hope he hasn't gotten himself in trouble & gotten phone & mail privledges taken away. He's a good kid. but sometimes doesn't always keep his mouth shut when he really should. Not in a bad way just lets what he is thinking come out. :-)

Hey DIV 022 Family, Lets keep our fingers crossed for that 1 hour phone call tomorrow. My husband said on Monday that if they continued to do so well this week, they would be rewarded with this call tomorrow. I know I am praying to hear from him tomorrow. He also said they had a scheduled call on Monday, so I am praying extra hard for a phone call both days!!! That would be so wonderful!!! Make sure everyone keeps their phones on loud and close by!!! :)
