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."

My SR 7/229 was also sick the first 3 weeks. He finally went to see the corpsman after having night sweats and then freezing-fever I'm guessing. They gave him antibiotics and he was well within 3 days!
Comment by AndreaLynnE on July 8, 2011 at 2:33pm

My son is also sick and said many in his division are battling sickness. I'm not expecting my call until next week, so I am anxiously awaiting ya'lls calls. lol

Comment by mitchellheard on July 8, 2011 at 2:02pm
My SR has been sick also.  Makes it even harder for them I know.  I hardly slept last night worried about them all.  I pray we hurry and get a call, cause I almost knocked my 14 year old son out racing for the phone when it rang. lol
Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on July 8, 2011 at 2:00pm
Lol Just T, My Sailor (daughter) laughs at me too. I call her all the time now to get answers for questions from everyone on this site. Sometimes she laughs and says where do they come up with this stuff. She will understand someday when she is a Mom :-)

Christy, I have been praying since I got my letter yesterday, my SR has the same thing & was taken to the ER at the VA.  This is such a busy and stressful time for them, praying they have the strength to accomplish what needs to be done.  No time for them to rest and get better, they have to be strong, mind over matter.  Hopefully only six days left and not another week added.
Comment by Just T on July 8, 2011 at 1:42pm

I got 3 letters today!!!!

 

She did confirm that Battle Stations was last night/this morning for 228.  No I am even more anxious for the call....She did tell me that if the wach schedule stays the same that she would have watch so if anyone gets a call please ask about the entire division!!!!

 

5 days until I blow this place and get to see my GIRL....My Sailor!

Comment by Christy on July 8, 2011 at 1:30pm

Ladies I have been to the post office and I got a letter.  My SR has been sick...bronchitis...sounds like the division is sharing this stuff....keep praying as they all need their strenght to finish bc.  It is bad enough to be sick but sick and away from home is worse. I understand that stress hard work little sleep can make you sick but the ship should be white glove clean...why so much sickness???

I go into the office really early so I can get on N4Ms before I have to start the work day.

So glad we are down to 6 days to go.
