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."

Guess what ladies, DOING THE HAPPY DANCE!!! I GOT A LETTER!!! I am so overjoyed that I can't breathe!!
My mailman is so sweet and so 'into this' with me that he changed his route and was waiting for me at the door when I drove up this morning!! (The Post Office is two doors down from my office so we are usually the last stop).
I hope you all get letters too even if they are busy. I so enjoy hearing all of your news. All of you have been so wonderful, I can't thank you enough for all of your support.

KylesMom we think a like :) I was just think of posting 6 more days! Woohoo...I'm ready to pack now! Still hoping for a letter today even though my son said he needed to stop writing and study because he had been so sick and because he would see me in a week. Maybe there's on more coming :)

Me too, Robsmom. The letters mean so much to him, even if he doesn't get the last one or two, what have I got to lose?

MomSR: they should get letters this Sunday. I would guess that this Sunday will be the last for letters since they graduate on Thursday :) I bet boot camp moms would know.
