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've been watching the RTC facebook page and others have talked about not getting a call. theres just no simple answer. there could be a million reasons why they havent called. then i worry if something happened to my cell phone and the call didn't go through...arrrgh!!

I got my call, too. It was about 5:30-6:00 EST. It was taking a long time to get to an open phone from what I gathered.

HI, I didn't get a call yet as well, I have heard that the entire DIV 001 DID PASS! Could be so many reasons why no call yet, but I think if there was a problem we would hear! I will keep my fingers crossed for everyone to get the call today! It is making me nerves too! I just can't wait to hear my son's voice! Congrats to everyone that have gotten the call!!!! What a proud time!!!

Thank you for the encouragement Annie0...trying to keep it together here and I've done so well so far. lol My mind is good at creating scenarios at would could go wrong. Like instead of saying "Yay all of div 001 passed" I think...okay...all of div 001 that went to battlestations passed, but maybe my SR didn't pass something and didn't go to BS. :( So..we'll keep hoping for a call.

If it's any consolation, it was taking a very long time for available phones because so many had to call. Maybe they're still waiting their turn:) Remember, no news is good news!! I hope you all get that call soon:)
