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."

My husband is ship 03 DIV 035. He called me on Saturday to talk about his itinerary and then we had some time to chat. He gave me some names of guys he's made friends with but since we can't say names on here I thought I'd use the descriptions he gave me. I'd love to meet some of his friends loved ones. His bunk mate and best friend at BC is 23 and has a 5 year old. He also has a friend from Houston, a friend from Minnesota, and a friend from Oklahoma. We live in Dallas, and have a little boy who is a year and a half.

Was this your first phone call or one the Div. earned? Got letters from daughter with phone call after week 3, but nothing over the holiday. Trying to see if they get leave right after PIR or do they have to report to new command first.

If you want ribbons you can order them from Lala Ribbon Queen. If you want a challenge coin you can get that from Craig. I am going to Sarge's on Thursday evening. Hope to see you there! I am bummed out that I did not get a call Saturday. I have a list of questions to ask my SR. Hope she will be able to squeeze a call in this week!

If you go to her website it will show you. You just need to decide what you want on your ribbons. First or last name on one side and the division number goes on the other. They look really nice. Looking forward to seeing you at Sarge's!
