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."

Got a letter today. Daniel and div are doing well. He passed all his tests and received "Sharpe shooter" in firearms. Said he can't wait for graduation and to see us. Glad our sons and daughters are doing well and our prayers are that everything continues to go well and we'll see you on April 16. God Bless and have a wonderful day.

Got a letter today and Daniel sounds wonderful. He is so excited about graduating. He got "Sharpe shooter" in firearms and said that things are going well with the division. He also said he is looking forward to seeing us and eating a steak. Our prayers continue for Ship 13 Div 160 and all recruits and families. God Bless and have a wonderful day.

The calls are going to come soon. Our daughter said she would try call again tomorrow (Wed 4/14).
But it doesn't really matter if we do not get any more calls because graduation is Friday and we get to see our amazing children.
Our thanks (Wayne and Roz) to all of you for your support and words of encouragement that made these last 8 weeks easier to tolerate. It helped just knowing you were all out there.
May God Bless you all and your sailors and may they go on to bigger and better things.
If I do not get to see you all on Friday. THANK YOU MY FRIENDS -
