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."

Hello!  My daughter just got her date moved back a week to 3/25 and will be in DIV112.  I know she is SO SAD she won't be graduating with her class she started with, but hopefully she will make new friends for her last 3 weeks.

SR Seddon

 

Mom, Cyndi

Why was she set back.  I'll have my daughter say Hi!  SR Lewis, Jensen

Lesli

I think that if your SR's A-school is in GL, they will spend a few hours after graduation moving to their new area, then we will have most of the weekend to spend with them.  We are going to get a hotel room with an extra bed so she can sleep if she wants to!  ha ha
Hi Cyndi, I'll tell Jensen to run with Suzi! They can help each other.  Talk to you soon. Skiing tomorrow. Lesli

I'm looking forward to the mail tomorrow...Battleship 21 must be coming up for them. Does anyone know the time line for that? That's their final "test." I'm so disappointed that we will have just a few short hours to visit with Kali. I'd like to provide her with her cell phone and computer...does anybody know if these things are allowed now?? I asked her these questions in my last letter...I'll let you know if I hear any of the rules. My understanding is that they will have more freedom and contact in A school. I wish I had a "rule book"

They can have them in A school. You would have to give them to her at the Airport or something. She cannot take them while in Boot Camp.

Anybody get mail today? Wednesdays are usually mail days for us (California). Maybe they're just too busy to write at this point?

Hi, Did you join the N4M3/25 on Facebook. Is is easy to talk on there!
I just printed my gate pass so let's all hope these days go by really fast.!!!!
Jensen is held back for not passing her running test. She is adament that she will pass tomorrow and graduate with her division. I am so worried. I will not be able to come if it is delayed. Hopefully I will get the call on Friday that she has passed runnning and is a Sailor! Pray hard!!
My prayers are with you, our SR my brother passed the swim ( he went in not being able to swim) but didn't pass the float test I believe they will both pass tomorrow, he's in Div 110. Good Luck to your SR.
Keeping her in my prayers for today...My son was worried sick about passing too as he had failed the first two running tests. His last letter said he would be taking the 3rd one this week so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him too. Pray for both of them!
