OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

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."

HOOYAH just got another phone call!!! Our God is good all the time!!! He sounded great!! Said this was a mandatory call!! Said the 369 just lost their 1st SR today. Apparently there was a hearing problem and it was too bad..my son said they all felt so sorry for him..He said even the RDC and Petty Officer were sorry to lose him. He said he is still the same guy that left but has gotten alot better with doing things..I am guessing he meant prioritizing..Said they have another PFA coming up..so prayers will never stop!! Hope more phone calls to all moms tonite!!

My SR has a bloody nose problem and they said if they cant fix it he might have to leave. He had a lot of blood work done last week so I guess no news is good news by now. Just praying that the bloody nose gets under control. I feel bad for that SR I get upset thinking that my SR could get sent home I cant imagine getting that phone call. :(

Poor SR was deaf in one ear. Not sure how he made it past MEPS. They were all sad to be losing one.

did he give a name?
My son has a hearing problem they knew about it at meps? If so PM me please. -

No no name, hoping and praying that you'd have already been called if it was your son.
They must have missed it at MEPS because they have a hearing test there. -

strange how things work out. He knows he has some hearing loss. They knew at Meps. He was seeing a specialist there I guess. Was told nothing to be worried about though not bad enough for him to be "sent home", so this is just making me sick to my tummy.

Just got a call too!!! Didn' t tell me about the SR, so sorry for him. We only had a couple of minutes so he could call Kelsey too. Kevin is on his flight home from California, he has been gone since 27 September and it will be good to have him home. WooHoo!!! Got a few minutes, he is feeling better, just a sore throat. Doing good though, Praise God!!!!

When my SR first wrote me the first thing he told me was that they have to do a lot of PT because everyone talks so much... So RDC's probably got tired of it. But from the sounds of it, if they are talking a lot they have obviously made good friends. If any of the other SRs are like mine then they enjoy talking lol
