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."

Thanks Josh'smom that is really excellent, new information. I am really glad the division (finally!) seems to be pulling together and doing well. It sounds like the RDC's are doing a great job with our division. Hope springs eternal that I might actually get a letter from my SR if the RDC is ordering them to write LOL. Anything is possible.

I love your check list SailingHi but so true and so artistic. How funny!
I haven't gotten any mail this week either, my son mails one letter to everyone and it goes to my ex's. Since he is out of town no mail. :( Not sure when he is back, but I'm hoping soon.

Sounds like the 15th is the consensus. I think we will be flying back on Sunday. I am taking off that Friday so I need to be back at work on Monday.
texasmom...What a great birthday present! My SR will be celebrating his birthday on the 20th! :)
No mail from GL today... :( Maybe tomorrow! :)

Good morning! My son also said that he was leaving the morning of the 15th for Goose Creek. It's my son's birthday too! At least we should be able to visit with him all weekend.

My computer took a crap, I knew it was going to at some point my husband was gone. UGH! I'm using my laptop, but it can be very unreliable. So I will be on here periodically.
