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."

My son Steve is ship 12 div 48. Have not received a letter yet. Missed him lots for Thanksgiving. He did call his twin twice. Unfortunately the second call went to voice mail. His twin said he sounded tired on the voice mail. Made our reservations for January. Staying at the Navy lodge and taking the train to chicago.

Twin sailors mom- I'm sure the letter is coming soon. When did your SR call? We haven't received a phone call since the "I arrived" call. Where do u live? We were thinking of taking the train also does it have a stop in Great Lakes? Is it the Amtrak train? We live in Michigan.

We are also signing up for Sarges at Sundance Saloon. My son attended this one and really liked it. Those who are staying at the navy lodge. Did you get reservations yet? I called and they told me I could not make them yet.

I made reservtions on line for the Navy Lodge as soon as we got the letter with our sons PIR date. It let me book a room for several nights and gave me an Email confirmation. Our son ended up in the hospital (Rhabdomyolysis) on Tuesday before Thanksgiving and did not get released until Friday around noon. I was surprised that they sent him back to division 48 since he missed several days. I am assuming his PIR date is still 1/4/2013. Try booking on line.
