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 am trying to stay calm, my call on sunday was a really worry. She said she failed her first academic test, and was to retake on Monday. My head head has been going a million miles an hour yesterday. I am praying that i don't get a call this week.

He raised in Hong Kong, but he's American. Does it make sense? But he will also say he's from Hong Kong sometimes cause for him, it's his home.
That's awesome. So did he serve a mission?
And yup! Still pretty new. But not too new for us (Mormon) you know because people get married everyday in Salt Lake Temple. haha

We've been married for 7 months. Yeah, my parents are both members, I was born in the covenants. :)
My husband and I were both raised in Hong Kong.
I am definitely going to his graduation. I can't wait to see him again. ha
What's your son job? And where is he right now?

I am so happy to see this group here. My husband just went out for Boot Camp yesterday. Well, we've been apart for almost a week already tho. :(
I am happy to see there are you guys here who has the same religion :)
Anyways, anyone have any special suggestion? Since I am so new.

Hi Sisters,
My Seabee son is preparing to deploy to Afghanistan in a few months and I am finding that I am already very emotional about it. I found myself starting to tear up at the mention of anything remotely related to that, including a couple of Christmas songs, which I hear frequently at work. I assume you can relate to that and I felt the need to say this to someone who understands.
