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."

Anyone with Div 265 receive a call yet? *sigh* I am still waiting for the first "real call", not the 2 minute "I'm here, I'm fine, call you in 3 weeks" call. Patience is not one of my virtues these days. BOOT CAMP IS HARD! :*(

I was really hoping we you've gotten a call yesterday! I've read that some calls come on Sunday, sometimes on Tuesday! Who knows! Just keep those phones on...it has to happen sooner or later!
I told my son in a letter that if the div didn't earn a phone call soon, I was going to start writing to all the SR's that name I know. I'm sure they don't want a lecture from someone else's Mom! LOL!
My picture says...Navy Mom, hardest job in the Navy! They don't tell you how hard it is on us Mom's...all the waiting and not knowing! I guess we better get used to it! :)

We got our phone call - it was wonderful! How can such a short call be so awesome? Now I can't wait for the next one! He affirmed that they were down to 88 with a possible 2 more leaving this week. He said it was all he envisioned and more. He said he was the Medical Yeoman but got promoted to ? Petty Officer-2nd in charge of the division (my husband says thats chief petty officer). There are so many things I wanted to ask and not enough time - he said there was a long line of guys trying to make their calls too. Keep your phones handy ladies!
