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 need to get a box off. Just don't know when to send it. Timing it does not seem to work. I guess just send it.

Well, I think they ran out long before 3 months in a few things. It is unusual.

Got a call from my sailor too! He sounded great - the time different and us working makes it hard to skype. But he said he will try to stay up tomorrow night and skype us or Saturday or Sunday. He got his care package and was excited - also said they were out of oatmeal too on the boat. Geez... they must be running out of everything (or they are eating alot) haha. It is just so good to hear their voices!!

YAY! Got a SKYPE call from my sailor. He looked good but kept yawning! lol Said he has duty tomorrow so hopefully I will get another call on Saturday. I told him I was happy just getting this call. I mentioned something about hot chocolate and he mentioned peanut butter! Gee usually sub has great food. This time around they seem to be out of stuff. Anyway, look for calls moms :)
