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."

I think the calls come in the late afternoon or evening ( At least the two divisions from last night) I hope that our SR's get a call..... Even if just for 2 minutes it would help.

I hope yours calls soon. My SR called my cell and I was in a meeting at work and missed it. He had tried his girlfriends 1st and she was on the other line and did not know. Tried his brother and his phone did not ring-went straight to voicemail. We are just sick. He did get his Dad for just about 3 minutes. I feel so bad for him! On my voicemail he said that they had all done well on their test and had earned a division flag. He sounded so upbeat in my voicemail but by the time he tried everyone and couldn't reach anyone he was really down. I pray they get another call next week...
