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."

Congrats on your first letter! My sr left sept 13 and what i have heard is they can call any time between week 3 and 4 and the times they call are random, depending on how their division is doing. Again i don't know this personally it's just what i have been told! But I hope you get a call soon!

He called me today! I was so excited I was having a bad day and worrying and it helped a lot... He said he spent all the time with me because he forgot his mom's phone number and warned me that next time it's shared which I understand why but I dont like it. He said the next call is possibly in a couple weeks so maybe you'll get part of that one?

I hope so. We have been together for seven years and we have a one year little boy that I would love to tell him that he is trying to walk now. It has been a bad week for me....So hoping that he would call me today just really hurt my feelings, but I understand why he called her house. He thought I would be there picking up the boys after I got off work, but I was off today and he didnt know that.

I bet your guy will be stoked to hear about your little one though! Have you at least gotten letters from him yet? I was doing really good with trying to like focus on other things but these last few days it has been seriously a big challenge and all I can think about is his PIR!
