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."

I am trying not to cry already!! :) yes lots of kleenex..... LOL I can see all of us running out there.... of course we wont.... but it would be funny! And Yes this site has been great - you gals have all gotten me through this, knowing that I'm not the only one feeling like I am. Can't wait to meet you all! We will have to keep this group going after PIR - I want to know how all the Men and Women are doing!
-
-
Yes Kathy, I agree with Cheryl, hang in there, right now no news is good news - you take care of yourself so you can enjoy your time with Stacy next week!

hi Cheryl....just a 1 min 23 sec phone call...lol and got the form letter I sent back - answered all but one of my questions.... :) so all in all a good day! heard his voice and got a letter.
-
-
we got a full size car through the Alamo deal, that was the largest we could get with the weekend deal - there will be four of us including our recruit - and room for a friend if he wants to invite anyone along.
I'm planning on black jeans and nice sweater - with thermals under...lol maybe it will be nicer - I'd take upper 50's
-
-
if that deal is gone try Priceline make an offer - we are going onto visit family after PIR and got a great deal - 18.00 per day out of baltimore. its a little scary since you don't know the car agency you are bidding on, but they are all name brand - ours ended up being through budget.
-
-
check alamo - online - they have a 45.00 weekend special - comes to 65.00 total with taxes - we are p[cking up our car on THurs and dropping off Monday. Great deal!
-
-
Just got a 1 min 23 sec. phone call!! way too short but good to hear his voice. He just needed to verify who was coming to graduation. He said he had to go to medical today that he came down with some rickycrud.... I'm praying that he recovers quickly - they have a hard 1 1/2 weeks to go!
-
-
I understand how you are feeling Marti, Div 108 battlestations is the Weds. before grad - we will be on our way by then... we are praying that everything will go smoothly, both on his end and ours! we have to drive 200 miles west over 2 passes to Spokane (better deals on airfare then from Missoula) on Weds then we fly out Thurs. morning. I told Aaron to leave a message on the phone and to call his grandparents after BS :) we can't afford 2 trips either - but it sounds like your son and ours are doing fine just have to go on faith.
-
-
Yahoo! That is great news - I'm so glad you found it!
-
-
I am anxious for call also.... I got a 9 min call 1/29..... oh well only 11 days and 11 hours.... lol
