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."

Thanks for posting this! I was wondering why I hadn't heard from him this week or received a letter, I guess they are really busy. I'm so proud!

Does anyone know when they will get to call home again? The last time I got a call from my son was on Tuesday, October 29th. I got a letter this week and the whole front page was missing from the envelope.

I hope soon!!! My son is division 030, but that was my last call, too. My son's letters are short with little to no information, which is just like him, so I can't complain too loudly.

At this point, we probably will not hear from our sons/daughters until after battlestations! Just keep those blue candles burning and those prayer lines filled - we are down to the final leg of this race! My son's letter that we received today said that they earned a flag during Hell week (Div 030) - they must be doing pretty good! Hang in there mom's - we are almost there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What did they earn the flag for? My son's letters mentioned shooting and they are excited to be almost finished.

That is great news about how great their division is doing! My son is in Div 029 as well. I received two letters from my son this week and he said that they would not be able to make calls until sometime between 11/22-11/25.
