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."

So I got a phone call today! He sounded so much better! Just really excited to be through and about to graduate! He also said he'd be getting a very long phone call tomorrow, so thats a plus! I am so ready to see my sailor! Keep those prayers coming too, I know he's nervous about A-School!

Dennise our son said we would have a four hour wait while they move to conditioning. I have also had a difficult time concentrating at work... and I better get it together have to do payroll tomorrow, lol. All of the comments have been a tremendous help to me as well. Hey ladies, I just tried to do a image search to see if I can figure out the colors of the flag. No luck yet.
Comment by Cornerstone Mom on May 17, 2010 at 8:08pm
Good idea Kimberly. Maybe they will call and we can ask them about the colors. Elaine nice to have you back and Dennise hopefully we can all meet up. I am getting so keyed up probaby will not sleep tonight.

I'm here! :) I was down south 200+ miles visiting one of my daughters doing student teaching. BUT--Jared did manage to call several of us family members. Yay! What great news about Battle Stations! So proud of all of our Sailors. KYMom, my husband and I are going to the M & G with two of our sons--the older one is already in the Navy stationed up on Washington. Wondering if those of us from this division should wear something different to find each other. Any ideas?

Spoke with my son earlier. He sounded wonderful. Congratuations to all of our Sailors. I am so thrilled bootcamp is now behind them and they can continue on to their journey. Good Luck to all.

Yeah got my call and he sounded great. I am so proud of them sounds like their performance was great. Look out Hall of Fame. My son did tell me not to send letters out after today. He hasnt received the ones I sent on Monday yet. I can talk to him in person before long, how awesome.
Comment by cmom-Ship04-Div812 on May 14, 2010 at 9:25pm
Wow.............C sounded great.....except for having 2 root canals done after battlestations. But said he would be fine....as a Mom I felt bad for him. ;-(
Still very proud of their accomplishments!!!!!!!!!!! Hooyah!
Comment by momof8 on May 14, 2010 at 8:59pm
OK my son must be the most understated...he said, "Yeah, we did OK, it was easy. That's all I can tell you because we're not supposed to talk about it."
Whatever, goofball!
