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."

My son is also in the same division. Had a call on Sunday from him. It seems the division is doing well all things considered. He said they as a group have only been dropped two times. He said the blisters are the worst thing other than having 3 wisdom teeth removed and I did send him band-aids last week so he could share with others. It was as if I were mailing some top secret item. Ha! He was so thankful as he stated that band-aids are like gold around there.
Hope all your SR's are encouraged and doing well! -

My son called Sunday, and said they might be able to call tomorrow (Wednesday)!!!! Was anyone else told the same? I'm crossing my fingers and keeping my phone close, just in case.

My son called on Sunday as well but I missed the call. I was so disappointed! I haven't spoken with him yet and I would love to just hear his voice. Oh I do hope they get to call today (Wednesday). I now have my home phone forwarded to my cell and carry it around with me everywhere!
