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."

Thunder ....I would call Great Lakes....they should be able to get you one.  I thought it was awesome

 

Comment by ThunderD'sMom on December 8, 2011 at 6:12pm

So I spoke with my Sailor last night and asked if he ordered a DVD of PIR, he said no he didn't want to relive that flag routine ever again. Huh. I thought he enjoyed being in the performance division. Shows what I know. Anybody know if I can still get a DVD? If so, where?

Comment by bodie5 on December 8, 2011 at 5:46pm
What division was you sailor in just me?
Comment by JustMe from NJ on December 8, 2011 at 5:15pm

Aww ... Goofy ... Hugs to you --that's a tough one!!  My son will be clear across the US.  We're in NJ and he is stationed in San Diego .. BUT ... it's a lot more accessible than Japan.  Keep busy and let the time pass quickly!  

Comment by goofyand glad on December 8, 2011 at 3:03pm

Ironically, I dropped my son at the aiport yesterday for his plane to Japan.   Was a very sad day, but I am so PROUD.   This morning I got the phone call,  voice was cracking, lump in my throat, tears in my eyes.....the same coming from him.  But hearing " I love you mom"   was worth the pain in my heart.  His big adventure has started.  Hope you all have yours home for Christmas, I was lucky to have him for Thanksgiving.

Comment by Carebear on December 7, 2011 at 6:42pm

Hi Ladies...happy Wednesday :) The sailors christmas makes me cry :( .. I did receive my DVD today.  Also my son gets to make it home for Christmas.  I am going to treasure this year.  I found out all of my kids will be home for Christmas and this will be the first since 2006 and I will become grandma in July :  ).  I have alot to be thankful for and this was my only wish for Christmas was to have everyone at home,

Comment by Cheryl56(Ship11 DIV352) on December 7, 2011 at 4:36pm

Hi Ladies...happy Wednesday :) The sailors christmas makes me cry :( Mine will be away this year...first time she hasn't been here since she was born:( Apparently though her ship has like 8 days holiday leave when they get back in from exercise!! Her boyfriend is going to visit her over christmas :( I'm so jealous but at least she won't be on her own plus her sister is in NC now so they will see each other too. Feeling sorry for myself being the only one who won't see my girls and grandson these holidays:( Very happy for all you mums that will see your sailors,give them a extra big hug :))

Comment by PMSingMOMof3(11/351) on December 7, 2011 at 1:43pm
Shelia there are some awesome videos on YouTube with that. Actually I have a few up on my FB wall. Definitely brought tears. Not that I have many left. LOL
