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."

Glad you got to see your recruit. woohoo...No, I didn't see my son. He is a rail guard. The cameras don't show that view. But there is a photo on FB RTC page...that might be him. lol Well, your son probably enjoyed the fire fighting stuff. And that's great that you are bringing a centerpiece. good job. I am not crafty, so I'm not...lol

Morning, glad you are able to keep yourself busy. Well, got a one minute phone call after 10:00 last night. Yah! Checking on the PIR list. He has lost his voice and think his is getting pink eye. Guess, the recruit crud is getting to all of them. But any communication is wonderful. It was good to hear what voice he had left...!
