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."

Hi everyone, Hope all is well. No letters today. Maybe they will earn a phone call soon.
Comment by Melissa1213 USS RR sister on February 14, 2010 at 7:24pm
Hello everyone!! Hope everyone's day went well and Happy Valentines day!!! With that being said....I have received another email that some members of this group are sending threats to other moms who have warned us about what we are private messaging. I made this group for us to support each other, talk to one another about their loved one in BC. The information that you decide to PM is your buissness however, I will not stand for the drama and will ban those from this group if there are going to be threats made. Please do not take offense....Our loved ones are goin through a lot of hard work and we as family memebers do not need to be sending threats. I want us to have a great group, to share and support each other. Everyone I have met so far in this group is fabulous. Please keep it that way...God Bless!

the roots of the wisdom teeth can reach into the sinus cavity. Some of the Navy are also aircrew and flight pressure can affect them with wisdom teeth in (this is what I heard) and for this reason also they pull them.
Comment by Melissa1213 USS RR sister on February 14, 2010 at 1:46pm
Hey my fellow navy moms, wives, family members!! It seems as though many emails have been going around about things I guess that shouldnt. Just please be aware of who you are sending private messages to and if you are private messaging someone about your loved one just address to those few people who you trust! We are all new at this and it is exciting to get to know each other and to share some great stories about the recruits...Just be aware of what you write. Have a great day and yes keep on sharing stories because that is what we are here for. Good luck and God Bless!
Comment by Melissa1213 USS RR sister on February 14, 2010 at 1:30pm
Yes they pull all wisdom teeth because if they were at sea and had a problem with thier wisdom teeth they would not be able to have them taken care of. I think they get a day of rest and from what I understand no it doesn't effect thier training.
Comment by Melissa1213 USS RR sister on February 14, 2010 at 3:02am
Hello Ladies! My mom got a second letter today.....not as good as the first one from the day before. How things can change in one day/ he is ok but getting wisdom teeth pulled. Oh and they can write every night!
