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."

Hey Ladies! I got a letter today!! He is doing much better, and was very glad to hear my voice on our phone call. The division is now allowed to write on Tuesday, Thursday, AND Sunday so expect lots more mail!! The DIV learned about A school, switched up running buddies and also got IT'd for two hours. Also, he has gotten many compliments from some N4M women about our prom pics which apparently people have mentioned in letters, he gets a kick out of the whole N4M community. I have the name of a SR who gets no mail and Grant was wondering if some of you would be willing to send him some. Let me know and I will give you the name. YAY FOR LETTERS!(:

Alright... enough about my shopping trip, so glad you got a letter. Seriously I love hearing about Grants letters because I know he knows mat :) Sounds like the division is doing well, maybe they'll be rewarded with a phone call!!!

OH I hope so! he also write about how he learned all the benefits of marriage in the navy and how good of an option it is, I wrote an entire letter on how I am a fan of both long and short engagements haha! Let me know if you want to write the lonely SR. Maybe your girls could draw a picture(:
I ended up not being able to shop because my eye doctor dilated my eyes, and I still can't see lol

I'm covering all my bases lol. I'd marry him in my backyard tomorrow if I had the chance. However, I wouldn't mind my dream wedding either haha. He planned one with me, we worked out all the details lol This man has seen every single episode of say yes to the dress! I'll message you. I'm glad so many people are willing to write, nobody should have to do bootcamp with no support at all.

I agree...I have been trying to write the girl my daughter talked about too. I got a short letter today. She also said they can write on Tuesday & Thursday along with Sundays now. Also that they have a test on the 14th...if they score well...they earn their extra phone call then. YAY!

Thank you,nothing is official right now, but he knows exactly what I want down to the napkin rings lol I can't wait, sometime in the next year I think he will ask, sooner if they keep on telling him whatever he's hearing Not quite too sure how my parents would feel about the baby getting married off first though haha. They may just have to adjust if things go well!
