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."

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Jason's wife...12 letters WOW. He sure misses YOU! Love that he is the head of the bathroom. I too asked my son in one of my 20 letters I sent to him but..still no answer and I haven't talked to him YET (he calls the gf..grrrrrrrr). I am certain everyone knows him and he certainly has a good job I hear. I talked to a lady the other day and her son did that in BC..and he was 'da man'. While we might not think its that glamorous sitting here..I hear its a GOOD assignment. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHhh for us all!

Yes I am sure they know each other. My husband said in his letter that he is the head PO of the bathroom and head something with the trash. That's sum heck of a couple duties he has! Lol ask your son if he knows the head bathroom man! Lol also my husband has a huge red birthmark on the left side of his face that goes from the top half of his head on the left, down to his cheek and to the tip of his shoulder. He should be able to spot him! Lol

HA Megan's MOM..it is funny..huh? Honestly..I think the military holds or doesn't mail the letters timely because mine was written on 10/3 and I got it today..geezzzzzzzzzz... I too have written 10 + times..lol. I don't think he got mine yet though as he didn't appear to have responded to anything I wrote or asked. I even told him MSU kicked UofM's butt in Football..(GO SPARTANS..hahaha..I went to MSU). Oh well..glad you got a letter (if even to your daughter) today..yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...I got a letter today too! Aaron said it isn't too bad and everything becomes routine. Says food is good..lol (I don't cook so maybe that is so..maybe it isn't..ha!). Said some of the kids get it, some don't but all in all, the group is doing very well. He said the Drill Instructors aren't all that bad..lol. Says inspections are pretty intense.
Just hearing from him makes me feel SOOOOOOOOOOO good. Sounds like its all good. He wrote the letter on 10/3 and I just got it today (10/12) ouchhhhhhhh! He also sent a separate letter for his sister (she isn't home from school yet) and she will LOVE it! Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....counting the days till PIR 11/19!

What is the best kind of phone cards; do they have phone cards that are reloadable? I really would like to hear my daughter's voice and I heard she needs a phone card to call home. God, I miss her so much.
Hey, am I the only one with a daughter in this Div...Sara will do A school in CA.
