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."

Anyone in div 120 get a call....I have not since Feb. 6th. He said in the last letter that I got he thought he would get a call that week. But, nothing! If your SR called let me know if they said how their div is doing...please. It is soo crazy to me the amount of anxiety I have over this! I am usually a fairly relaxed person. I feel like a crazed stalker...LOL!

Sorry Lola, no calls. I haven't had one since Saturday the 2nd. I did get a letter, but it basically said that he didn't have much new to report except that he was feeling better and was really tired. They had had a couple of PT's but that was to be expected. I re-read through all the family information on the Training Command website and saw where they typically get 3 phone calls - The I'm here, one midway and one to say that they passed Battle Stations 21. I'm trying to not get discouraged. I told him in my last letter that since he isn't getting calls he will have to do better about telling me what is going on in his letters.
I understand what you mean about the stalking. I'm so disappointed when there are not any new posts from other Div. 120 moms with information given by their SR's.

No phone calls here yet. If they have dinner at 5 or 530 they probably wont call now, I am also on here looking to see if anyone got a call. After a long time goes by I just want to hear his voice. But my husband said thats crazy to think we would get another call anytime soon. But I am hopeful anyway. Cant believe its only 23 days away.

No phone calls here this weekend either. Yeah- 23 more days! I finally changed our hotel to the Spring Hill Suites so lots of us from 119 & 120 will be together. Take care- hopefully letters or calls soon.

Yay Mary K! I have to apologize in advance because I know that when I see everyone at the hotel I will probably cry - a lot! It has definitely been an emotional roller coaster and just getting to meet everyone who is going through the same thing will be a high point!

I haven't received a phone call today either. I've noticed a pattern with letters though. Because I'm in Atlanta, I normally receive letters every Thursday now.
