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."

You didn't get one on Thursday when the Division called? I wonder if its because he was SIQ, so he probably needed to catch up on the training he missed? I'm sorry, I know you must be worried....I'm sure he's doing ok. You still might get a call today! Hang in there!

I heard from my son on Friday of last week, they said they passed Marlinspike and they earned another flag. He sounded happy and was so glad they have reached the half way point! What is the latest out there other MOMs? Any other news?

Hi all! Sorry I have not been on lately. School is kicking my hind parts!
The last call I got was Thur. 1/31. He sounded better and more encouraged this time than last call. He had been sick with the crud too, but said it had not missed any training for which I am very thankful!
I do think their division is coming together well. I can't wait to meet each of you and your SAILORS!!!

If our calculations are correct today was 4-4, but don't forget that Monday is a federal holiday so they will miss a day. So Tuesday should be 5-2. I think this is right. Might want to post in main discussion group to be sure. I am sure one of our veteran moms would know the answer.

maybe I am off a day? I thought today was 5-1 day? Then, yes, with the holiday, Tuesday will still be 5-2 day.
