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."

Same as you it sound like. We didn't get a letter yesterday (which we have been every week) and i got pretty bummed, so I reread his old letters and dang near cried myself to sleep. I have been pretty emotional today also. I know that the next two weeks are going to go by pretty fast and I have a lot to do I need to stay focussed, I went back to college & am just about at the end of my term. I am actually taking a test, flying out to graduation, getting back & take another test the next day. I try to stay real busy, that's what helped when my husband was on deployments.
I understand how hard it is, stay positive it will be easier after they get out of Basic.
