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."

He was sad to go and said he didn't know when he would get to see us again. He said he will miss us and home but he feels at home there with all the structure which is so different than he was bvefore he joined. I like that part.

chanmom, so glad. Mine is not ready to go back, so I think it is going to be hard on us all when we have to say goodbye, I know we are so fortunate to have this much time together, but it is going so fast and there just aren't enough hugs to be had,,,trying so hard to not be sad, but it's not working right now. Gotta suck it up and let go eventually...

chanmom, I can hear the heartache in your comment - I know how you feel. I still have a few days left with my sailor, but the time has flown by and I am desperate to stop it!
MEsailormom, no, don't see the tears stopping anytime soon...:/
Been struggling with the blues lately, can you tell?

I received the most special DVD from Moose Lodge in IL. Not only did they create the most special Tday for our Sailors they took pictures of the whole day and set it to music. They also sent the letters from the school children and the pictures the Sailors took. I have to say I cryed through the whole thing (will these tears ever stop), The world is truly full of love!!! Amazing group of people....
