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."

Know how you feel Sharon..I missed Coreys call but listened to his message and it brought me to tears. Plus he got a ribbon for 9mm sharpshooter!! He has a good head cold so I will be ready with some meds when I see him..maybe a netty pot just to clear his sinuses. Told me he will call me Wed!!

I am sorry you missed the call! That was one phone call that we didn't expect today, we were praying for a call tomorrow. Diego got his 9mm ribbon as well last week and he said he also received a ribbon and a medal for National Defense. I don't know what that one is, never heard of it. We will find out on Friday though.
Do you use a netty pot? I have never used one though know what it is and how it is used. Does it help? -

Yes I use it too. Sure does help the sinuses when you are congested. Looks like a tea pot and you poor it in one side of the nose and it comes out the other. Sounds bad but does help alot!!

In case I am not able to make the M&G I want to say THANK YOU to all of my 369 friends..You all have made these last 8 weeks bearable. Even if I didn't get a letter or missed his call I have so enjoyed reading your posts and have felt so much better. Knowing what my son was doing has kept my spirits up. Being a single mom I have found out more about me these past weeks. And know this is now time for me as I am like you all..we always put our kids first and we came second. I I love each of you and wish you all and your SAILORS Godspeed as you all embarq on your new lives..Thanks!! God bless you and your families!!
