DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Hello, I totally agree with you. Especially after I was told by my son he gets a Mandatory 1 hour phone call and that it would be either xmas eve or xmas day. Missed his first phone call 10 days a go so all I got was a very intense, stressed out sounding voice mail from my son. Upset I missed the first phone call, and really anticipated a xmas phone call. I understand they have to earn them as a group, and that they are privileges. Yes this is tough,but remember its only Temporary. It will get better. Look for an unexpected call soon. Hang in there, we All feel ya.

Woo Hoo Connie! I got one from my daughter too! I think hers are a week behind, though. She told me about the upcoming test. What's the date on your letter? Mine was from two weeks ago. I'm glad they got a flag. She sounded upbeat in some and down in others. Mentioned a lot of names but not Sara's. :-(

My son also mentioned that someone in the Ladies Division on his ship got a Demerit, therefore the Guys could not call Home either....This will teach them to work together as a group and one action effects all of them. Still they are getting there and almost done...cant wait.

Oh no! That's not good. My daughter has mentioned that there seem to be some that just don't care. Hopefully this will teach them to work as a group. I wonder if they think about taking gunfire and needing to have eachother's backs. Get it together girls! You can do this!
