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."

Ship 02 (USS Reuben James) Division 947
Welcome to the discussion group for division 947.
Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.
Get to know each other, your SRs are!
Please still use the main wall to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like.
Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine
Every single member is important to us
We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

ellen - Since this is TG47, you group name should be Division 947. I think you have a typo. TG-46/Divsion 946 was Sept 28th.
However, check with one of the veteran moms 1st, because they do combine the TG around the different holidays.

TG means Training Group, it's the group that goes through boot camp together and graduates together. So our TG is 47 I believe.

Thanks Craig I fixed it! That's what happens when you do things at 2am.
Thank goodness I didn't post the name of the ship as the USS Reuben Sandwich, that would have been embarrassing.
