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."

anyone from 811 get a phone call? We haven't gotten mail service since last Friday due to the flooding here, so I called the post office and chewed them out. My husband is going to pick up our mail from the carrier's house-I told them I have to get my mail when I'm expecting one from my SR! So much for their mantra, "Nor rain nor sleet." Sigh. I feel like that ketchup commercial from the '70's-"Anticipation...is making me wait."

@Kelly, he said it is tough and they are one of the two all male divisions and he was happy his RDC's are Marines that have been cross trained (I picked up the sarcasm of that line). Overall, sounds like they are doing well and may be able to make a phone call on April 17th, that's right this Sunday, for maybe 20 min if no one messes up on anything. How wonderful is that?!

Happy for you RaeEli, sorry about your knee though!

@Kelly in Katy, I got home and had 4 letters in the mailbox!!!! Moments later, I tripped and fell and tore open my knee. Apparently, I was so happy about receiving letters I forgot I was walking. O well! I'm in SC and it seems like it takes about 4 days for me to get mail so it might take a couple more days to get to you. Be on the lookout!!! I hope you get some soon!

Thanks Rae, Just seems like everyone is getting letters but nothing from div.178.
Just wondering why??

@Kelly In Katy... nothing yet. I'm going home during lunch to see if I have any mail today. Gosh I hope so!!! I will let you know.
