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 got my 2nd letter today from my Hubby! So much more upbeat than the last letter. He had great things to say about all the SR's in Ship12 Div369. He also said the RDC's are really cool! 5 weeks from today we will all be in Great Lakes, probably unable to sleep, I know I won't be able to! So anxious to see my SR!

Congrats to everyone who got phone calls and letters!!!!  It's terrific.  I'm hoping tomorrow is my lucky day.  I finally booked my hotel.  We're staying at the Comfort Suites in Grayslake.  It's a little further than the other hotels (10.6) miles, but I've read really good things about it and it's only 2 yrs old.  Plus $72/night is pretty good.  Last thing to do is reserve the car....PIR here I come!!!
Comment by Invisible12 on October 5, 2011 at 10:15pm
Hi Sandy - it's been a long time.  I'm hanging in there.  It's good to hear from you!
Comment by sinistra Ship 4 DIV 823 on October 5, 2011 at 10:11pm
Glad to see everyone getting letters and phone calls. I know that my son is not a letter writer so i hold onto the fact that no news is good news, Can't wait to see him in november.
Comment by Lizzie's Mom Ship 03/Div 367 on October 5, 2011 at 10:07pm
Woo Hoo!  I spoke with my daughter today....she said everyone in her division was given a call home.  Hope everyone was available for the call.  She sounded wonderful.
Comment by Zenda 04/823 on October 5, 2011 at 8:53pm
@ missync....our son got his wisdom teeth pulled too! Glad you got another letter. We got ours on a saturday so hopefully it will come SOON!
Comment by diannep on October 5, 2011 at 8:19pm
Thanks, ladies.  I so miss being on here and have missed you all too!  Would like to have more time for N4Ms...maybe soon?  Thanks!
Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on October 5, 2011 at 8:08pm

I have several emails from people wanting more info about the ribbons I make for families to wear to PIR. For some reason I cannot reply to any emails on this site. It is probably just a temporary thing. If you sent me an email and I have not responded you can email me at uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com   Thanks

Is anyone else having problems with the email on this site?

 

Dianne, so glad things are looking better and Mom is getting better. I bet you are exhausted. It is good to see you back on here :-) I sure missed you <3

Comment by missync1-04-823 on October 5, 2011 at 8:05pm
Unbelievably, I got letter 3 yesterday. ..starting to feel guilty.  But, as has been said, each one is more upbeat.  Those first few weeks were BAD, so everything they experience is "better"! Lots of wisdom teeth have been removed...must not want any "wise guys" in the service!
Comment by Sandy's_sailor son on October 5, 2011 at 7:55pm

Diannep, good to see you back. We all missed you.

Now that I am working. I don't have lots of time to be on NFMs as I used to. However, I will try to help out as much as I can.
