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'm sorry to hear about your SR mamabear :( It must be so disappointing to be anticipating that 2/10 date only to find it will be another week. I'm not sure if this division is all SEAL, but if it is I'm fairly certain your son will still meet up with these guys at preBUD/S. There is a division graduating this Friday and then the SEAL guys on 2/10. It is my guess that these guys will be forming Class 2 9 5 and your son will probably re-join them after his PIR. That happened with my sons's original class. Guys that were held back along the way for whatever reason joined their Class when they got to preBUD/S.

MamaBear I am so sorry about your son. I know it is hard on both of them(fiance), since when he rolls so does she. Glad you are ok with this, it helps to stay positive for your son. AZK is right he should be joining his buddies in PreBuds.

I am sorry about your SR. When he graduates he will be in the Pre-BUD/S class with the rest of his buddies. Division 805 is the last all SEAL division as of right now. So he should be in class 295 at BUD/S :)

Is today the day we can print off our Parking Passes?
This morning I just mailed our last letter/notes/cards to our SR while in BC. I have prewritten notes to be opened on specific days by him. I hope he follows my instructions. Beyond excited, 10 days and counting. I started counting up the number of days we've been apart.....my best approx: it will be a total of 66 days. 680 miles. So beyond R-E-A-D-Y to see our guy.
Have a great week all. I work the next 3 nights and my time will be limited on N4M's. I hope we all get lots of letters this week.
HOOYAH!

Grateful for a surprise 23 minute call last night from our SR. It was GREAT to hear his voice. One letter and one phone call this week......we can do this.! I hope all of you 805 N4M get good calls and letters this week. Busy week for our guys. Ladies, light those blue candles. I can't wait to see our SR and to meet you ladies. What a journey we have been on thus far.
