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."

pretty sure there is mail delivery on Christmas Eve but none on Christmas Day....fortunately I am home all day to "stalk" ...lol

gitti, thats so funny. Id like to tell the mail man to honk the horn like you can request when a letter comes, but he'd be honking and i'd be at work one of those days. Cant get picky and say only thur-saturday sir! haha No worries. Although, I wonder if they deliver mail on xmas eve... I am assuming they dont on xmas day right? I am new to this mail sending/receiving thing. My fiance and I are texters (go figure!)

I heard from my youngest daughter that my SR's boyfriend received some letter yesterday also....I am praying everyone gets something in the mail before Christmas to help them thru the holiday.
Supportive1....I told my mail lady I was stalking the mailbox waiting for letters so she is watching for me too...lol

-
No letter yet from my fiance, speaking of which..I have our blinds open watching out for the mail man, if the poor guy even knew I am stalking him :)

sorry...my son somehow deleted my first posts about the letters...I need to remember to close the site before leaving the room...lol

Just heard from my mom that she also received two letters from our SR today...she was in tears

Karen...I'm sure his next letters will be better once he gets your's. There is such a long delay from when they started writing and the day they finally get our letters. She started writing her letters around 12/1 and said she received mine 12/14. She seems to be writing a small paragraph each night. Her last letter is dated the 17th. I am anxious for the next ones already because she had her wisdom teeth pulled that day and I want to know how she recovered. But I am grateful for the letters I did receive.
