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."

Hello!!!!!!!
Praying for some letters TODAY!!!!!!!! Waiting for the mailman to get here.....

I was praying too! No letter for me..... thought it would be a slim chance since I'm in CA

No letters for us either. :( And we're so close to GL, you'd think if they were able to mail letters out on Monday, that we would have gotten them yesterday or today. It makes me wonder if maybe they weren't allowed to send letters home yet. Sigh....

Darn it, I was hoping you would get your letter today too so we could compare notes...maybe since your so close they sent it by pegion! lol From my son's letter sounds like the DIV has some struggles getting it together but that they are doing better so that is great!

Hi , my son called this morning - said he couldn't call on Christmas so this was his Christmas call - we talked around 10 minutes
It was so awesome to hear from him
He sounded so much better - seems like he is now adjusting
He talked about push-ups in order to play jingle bells with dog tags and making it rain by doing so many push-ups that their sweat creates condensation on the ceiling that "makes it rain"
He sounded really happy about having so many friends - they are sticking together and supporting each other
He loves the food and is looking forward to tomorrow's meal -
