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 daughter just got a letter from her brother's shipmate, initial's JW. He asked if she would correspond with him, so she is having fun collecting funny memes, and getting a card ready. If he belongs to you, what are his interests?

Merry Christmas, and I scoured every photo....twice! But didn't see their division. Hard not to be disappointed, but wow! The photographers did an amazing job at capturing so many recruits.

I spoke with my son Friday evening asked if they had been in his compartment to take pictures he said no I was so upset they said all the recruits but clearly didn't do their best to capture all of them was hoping for just one pic

Good morning, I hear you. I am so glad to hear you spoke to your SR. I am sorry they were not photographed. Looking forward to hopefully meeting you. Our boys must be going through a lot!
Blessings

Just got a ten second call from my SR in 061..."Hi Mom, I'm okay. Pray for me. I love you." Would love to know if anyone received any more detailed info. Happy Day-After-Christmas.

SR said their div ((61) had not had mail in the past couple weeks, but that they would likely get their mail Monday. He's had about an hour on the phone with his wife so far. Thankful he was able to call, but feeling sad they did not get the Christmas mail yet.

Yes, I think they received mail up until last week...perhaps it was just my SR who has not gotten his letters recently. He alluded to the trouble you mentioned. He thinks he will get mail Monday or Tuesday. Every word I read from you all here and on FB keeps me going. Praying for our loved ones.

No, navygirlfriend. None of the divisions are allowed to mail out everyday....ever. They mail out on Mondays only (collected on Sundays). It is possible that your SR was WRITING everyday, but it wasn't being collected until Sundays. They RECEIVE mail M-F though.
