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."

Catie congrats ton your baby girl! Hope everything is ok.
question what is the "cone of silence" never heard of that term before.
does that mean we have to hurry up and wait forever before hearing from our sailors again? :-(

Got an email from JD today. He said to keep sending emails with Rangers scores. While Wendy was there visiting, he did indicate that we are going to have another "cone of silence" before the underway is over. :(

My husband and I were on the ombudsman's list for the last homecoming. Alex just wasn't sure if he had to do it again. I don't know if the list has to be updated with each deployment?

I just heard from Alex. He finally found a burn phone so he could call home. He sounded tired and he wished he could have seen more of Glasgow, but he's been really busy. It will be good to see him when they get back. He's just concerned that he was suppose to put us on the list for homecoming. I'm hoping that won't be a problem because he is so looking forward to having his father be there that day. His Dad was Navy and Alex really wants him to tour the Miami. So, I'm just hoping there won't be any problems.

heard from JD. he said they are expecting quite a few new people any day now. he said he's supposed to get a NUB. non useful body. lol. Looks like they are there for a few days. then another stop is planned that he mentioned. so we ought to get news this week and then again. talked about the Norwegian prices. $18 for a long island iced tea in Chili's. $100 for the reindeer steak. Apparently it's raining today. Wendy is there for a few days. She said it's like a little tourist fishing town. Her hotel is about a 30 min walk. JD was glad I'd emailed news about the Texas Rangers and the world series. Said he forwarded it to other guys on the boat. Apparently they are starved for sports news and other world events while underway! Glad everyone else is hearing from the guys!
