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 don't think that she will do that, you are one of the people that she needs to talk to. She knows that you will tell her just what she needs to hear and that you will always give advise with love.

Yesterday I freaked out because my youngest son called my cell phone and it didn't ring... or at least I didn't think it did. I was freaking out thinking something was wrong with my cell phone but after trying and trying to figure it out I realized that I had the ringer volume turned all the way down. Needless to say - I fixed that right away. I would have been crying buckets if my SR had called and I didn't answer because I didn't hear the phone ring!!! Thankful I looked at my phone very closely and don't have any missed calls.

Well ladies, still no letter from my darling daughter but that's ok. I was glad she wrote to her Grandma:) Praying I receive a letter this week. On a positive note just booked our hotel, flight and rent a car. I will be staying at Best Western in Gurnee is anyone else staying there? Also, what do I need to drive rental car on base?

i believe there was a password in your form letter, to use online, that will get you a pass to get on base. *i think*

There is a password on the form letter & the link will be available a week, I think, before PIR & you can print them out. I would print out a couple of them in case one gets lost or blows out of the car or something. That is all that you will need to get onto RTC.
