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."

I also got a letter yesterday and my son said the same thing about not being able to pull it together as a team. Mine also sounded depressed. But then also in the next paragraph he was excited about Firefighting school and they had there pictures taken and the trailer they went into had a radio going. He said it was the first time he had heard a song since he got there and he hummed it all day. He said it was even a Taylor Swift song and he hates Taylor Swift but he did not care it was music!!! LOL He also said it made him think of his sister because she loves Taylor!!! I am praying for our SR's that they will come together for Battle Stations. I know they can do and will!! Have a good day all

No phone call here...but luckily I ran out of chocolate at lunch time, and haven't left the house for fear that I would miss the phone call:)
I did get a letter today with a somewhat smarta** attitude. Something about not being able to answer moms bootcamp questionnaires because of no opinions allowed there, and a challenge to his sister that he is going to show her what a clean room really looks like when he gets home!!!
He also talked about LIVE FIRE, having earned some ribbons, and the division getting their first flag...the star flag for passing their zone inspection, and hoping for their second flag tomorrow.
Seems that spirits are high and division 135 is working well together.

No phone call here either. He usually calls his gf and she said the call has come as late as 10:30 PM!!

Do you think the phone call schedule changed because of the President's speech? I wonder if our sons and daughters watched.

My SR told me that they won't ever call after 730...just think of it this way ladies. A watch pot never boils. We're going to get these calls when we least expect it. Everybody keep their heads up and try to have a good rest of the night
