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."

Yeah!!!! You found us!!!!! So glad you are here Kerry-Ann!

Aww...you know she's working hard. My SR's mother said she got a call on mother's day...
-

Oh okay. On another forum I read, they said they started receiving letters around 17-20 days after their SR arrived. So based on my calculation, we are due one any day now...As soon as someone receives a letter, that will at least give us hope that ours is on the way! Did your SR call on Mother's Day?

Well here I am : ) He is more of the SillyGoose but we are always laughing and having a good time! Katie's mom, have you received a letter yet?

Good morning, ladies (and Jay!) I hope you're all doing well today. My son's bday is June 4th and so far I have a letter and two cards (one from the cats, of course!) to send off. I'm having trouble getting the new kitten to sit still long enough to sign the card, but I'll figure something out :-)
