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."

Got letter yesterday only one page...(others were many) said they are getting busy with owrking out and doing other things so his time is limited. He told me what he wants to do after graduation, guess I only get to see him on Graduation day, he has other plans the rest of the weekend. Said he will try harder to write more because he loves getting mail. He didn't mention anything about the "Bird" and I asked him about it...
Also, a friend of my told me to buy him his Coin during graduation..
they are like $10 each. Also, are any of you buying the Ribbon?

Yes, I guess you can say I have been getting lucky! For most of the calls he's only asking about things the RDC's need to know so they are usually standing near him. He can't say much besides getting the info they need then hang up.

Actually I spoke with my hubby yesterday morning. Wasn't very long, but he said they are starting Hell Week doing live fires and preparing for Battlestations. His battlestation date is on the 27th and should be calling home with the "I'm a sailor" call on the 28th. Dates could change! Pictures are this week too.

Ladies, lets flood the division with post cards to all the guys to pump them up and motivate division 821 go kick butt!
