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 wish I had an answer for you, but since I'm a SR mother and not a spouse I can't help. Is there a discussion group on here for spouses? If so maybe you could ask there.

Well 3 weeks down! Since this is their 3rd week, hopefully they will be allowed to call us over the weekend! We need to keep sending our SR's words of encouragement to keep them mentally strong. They are already obviously physically strong from all the extra IT they have been receiving :-)

I'd say it's probably not going to happen but keep those phones on you. Calls can come at any time. I got one the first Sunday at 4pm my time, (6pm theirs) and I was in the store.
