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."

It's 11:00 at night and I so wish I was reading the book to my son... I know he is probably tucked safely into his rack and sleeping. I have read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" to him since he was born, and this is the first year in 21 that I will not read it. It was the same book my Godmother game me the year I was born in 1957! Today I waited for the mail-lady and got not form letter. I'm so irritated, but know there is nothing to be done. I wanted that dang letter. Is it in a regular sized envelope or in a large 8x10 envelope? I am glad for those who got there letters, Merry Christmas! I will get mine on Monday I am sure. I will be praying for a phone call, but I know that is very much not happening! I pray some of you get a phone call. Wish best wishes!

Hi ladies! My son is ship09 div082 also. So glad to meet other parents who have children with mine. I also received his box on Monday and the PIR letter came on Wednesday. I was told by a Navy soldier who became civilian last year that they can write and get letters on any day, but their division must earn the privlege to do so. I have sent him 8 letters in the last week...one from the dog. I am told to keep the humor up with him. So glad to meet you and hope to speak again!

I am actually out of town for Christmas. My neighbor is pulling in my mail and on "high allert" looking for anything that may be from Anthony (my son). The box came on Mon, and he managed to write a little note on the back of the cardboard tag from his socks! Got the form letter on Wed. Wish I could be opening these things myself, but having her read it to me is better than nothing! Hoping to be home before New Years Eve. I haven't heard from her, so I guess nothing came today. We can hope for Monday, right?

Thanks for the reply Andria! I'm so glad they get mail everyday. I don't know where I got the impression that they only have mail call on Sunday. I know they can only wrtie on Sunday, but aside from that thought they got all their mail then also. Is it a daughter you have in ship 03/div 082?

I'm a new Navy mom. My son was not happy about leaving before Christmas (his original ship out date was Dec 28). It also happens to be my birthday the 24th, and while I don't make a big deal of it, he wanted to be home for it. This website is great support- although I'm not really fluent in blogs, discussions, threads, what have you...
Does anyone know if they receive mail every day? once a week? I know that right now they can only write on Sunday, but what about incoming mail?
