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."

Jose...Yeah, I bet you are going to get a letter tomorrow or Friday. I wouldn't give up hope. Hannah said they had from 7 til 1 on Sunday for themselves, she called it Holiday routine (AKA Sunday!). It probably just takes longer to get to NJ. I'm in Wisconsin... closer. Keep the faith!

I appreciate all the info on calls and letters, etc. I would never dare to call anyone to see what's up!!!!! I am absolutely sure she would be given a really hard time about " your mommy is looking for you".
I was a single mom for 17 years...I have raised all of my kids to be strong and independent. I know she is fine and I will see her again (hopefully....). I would just love some feedback about how it is for her.
I am just very grateful to have this group and by reading what is going on with others in her Div. By reading what others have written I have some idea about everything....so keep me posted until I get a post!
Thanks all and looking forward to the meet n greet...I am in on 11.4 in the early afternoon. -
