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."

Ohhhh, well I guess that's good even though I really miss him and would like to talk to him. At least next phone call they will be pretty much through then! I guess they would do Battlestations at the end of this week or next week?

It gets better and you're right about the next phone call, could be " I made it". :0) I'm keeping busy with school, work and mowing the lawn right now. When I am just sitting and resting is when I miss my ST the most.

CTMom, so happy for you! We got a call today too - I was at work but he talked to my daughter and she called me on her cell at the same time so we kind of talked but I didn't get to actually hear him. I think they are so ready to be done with this part. I just joined the facebook group, does someone have to accept me?

deckard88 my son is division 126. He said today was tour day and they walked all over the base in the snow. He said things are going good, they only have a few more tests plus battlestations and that hell week wasn't that bad. I think they are all happy to be this far through.
