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."

Good morning everyone.....
Well not really.... Still no letter....went to the mailbox yesterday with such high hopes only to be let down. My mail man, bless his heart has been scouring all incoming mail to make sure we dont miss anything. I'll have to bake for him this weekend. I will remain hopeful that something shows up soon. STILL no phone call either. I am really struggling with NOT hearing anything....though I'd rather hear nothing and know everything is ok than to get 'that' call. So I guess I can't complain too badly. I just miss my son very much!
Have a great day!!

I hope that you get a letter today!! Maybe, hopefully it is just taking a little longer because your further away! At least that's what I'm hoping is the case! Ill say an extra prayer for you & your SR! Hang in there, I know it's hard to see the silver lining but it will present itself & when it does it will be like the 4th of July!!!
