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 also have found out that our recruits will be getting 2 division t-shirts that they can give to whom they want. I have no clue who is setting up this division meet and great yet. so if anyone wants to take care of that please do. I dont know where I will be staying at yet. Ill post any more news as I get it. have a great day.

Captain's Cup is kind of like a track and field day.  All the divisions compete in events such as sit ups, push ups, running, softball, etc.  It is a fun day and I think really the first time that they actually integrate with other SRs in their ship.  Since 165 has both males and females, they won the event for the integrated division.

Thankyou for the info about Capt Cup.... hopefully a call today.

 

Thanks everyone for the prayers! We just found out that the tornado that hit my hometown was an EF4. They're still without power since Wednesday. I brought my parents to my home, which has power. I didn't brave the 2 hour gas station lines, but I did get some today! Yay! It will be nice to get away from everything next week.
im very glad that you and your family is safe and that your home didnt get damaged
The town that got hit that is 8 miles from me was an EF2.  I live in Central Arkansas about 30 miles north of Little Rock.  I have seen pictures of the one that hit in Alabama and it was huge.  Thankful that you and your family are safe.  I know you will be looking forward to getting away from it all next week.  Have a safe trip!

I got a call today from my princess. Sge sounds very excited to be almost finished with BC. She also gave me a list of things to bring for her. LOL

 

I hope you all gets calls today too. See you all on thursday, for sure on friday morning

There is nothing better than answering the phone and hearing "Hello Sweet Wife".

I can not wait to see him. He was excited as well and is so glad that they are all just about done.

 

Hope the rest of you all were able to speak to your SR's as well.

 

We get to see and touch them on Fri. YEAH!!!!!!!!

I feel like we all have just about made it to the end of boot camp....some did it in Great Lakes and the rest of us in our hometowns.

 

Got my phone call too!!  We are on the home stretch now and I could not be happier!  and the good news is we will hear from the again on tuesday : )

My DIL hasn't got one yet :-(

Was hoping everyone would get to call, but I guess it could still happen.

none here either. Only 6:30 their time in GL. here's hoping...

Maybe they had watch and had to miss out. I am sorry that your family and Shaun's mom's family missed out on the calls.

From what J said, they are all excited about BS21 and grad. can not wait to get it over with. They did have fun on Sat. and was glad that they won the CC.

That there is excitment in the air about everyone getting to see friends/ family in just a couple of days. They all should get to call on Tue. to tell us the good news.

Hang in there, just a few more days. Really sorry you did not get the calls. :o(

 

Your thoughts and prayers go out to the ones in BS21 tonight.

I am just hoping my SR has passed everything. No news is good news.

Clicking my ruby slippers together...

 

Good luck to the SRs in tonights BS!
