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."

Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 015 and 016

These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. 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 of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area 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!!!

My son is Ship 12 Division 015. He had his wisdom teeth pulled last week and was SIQ (sick in quarters) for a few days. Very excited for calls and letters. Can wait for 11/21:-)

My son had his pulled out about 2 weeks ago as well. He did good with his. So excited to hear his voice when he calls. 11/21/14

Hello. My son is Div 15. So happy to have talked to him twice. 40 minutes each time! We just put him on speakerphone and let him ramble on. He thought he was going to have his wisdom teeth out but it turned out they are not grown enough. He will be going to Nuke school in Charleston. I can't believe we are halfway through boot camp!!

Tink- Welcome!! My son is in 015, he didn't have to have his wisdom teeth out either. But he's made a bunch of friends and I can't wait to see him.

Okay ladies, not sure if I am crazy, seeing things due to missing my SR, but in today's Wacky Wednesday Competition the picture used for the contest, I swear my son is in it. Not sure if its our division or not, if anyone can confirm that would be awesome!

 

Can you post a link? I'll look too and let you know if I see my SR

If you go to Facebook and look up he US Navy Recruit Training Command its posted on the page.

Oh dont use the facebook pages. Think too easy to hack. Dont post much about my SR on mine, and have it friends only for all choices.

No the picture is on the US Navy Recruit Training Command's page. Not on mine.  If you go on your FB, search US Navy Recruit Training Command you will see the picture.  This is official FB of the Navy.  They have pictures of each PIR each Friday.  Sarge sometimes send messages out through this means.

 

Ok maybe because I am on phone only see visitor pics. Will look when I get home in 5 or 6 hours. Another long day.

My son is in DIV 15. Super excited!!!!! 17 days and counting.

Welcome! My son is the same division, we are getting closer and closer to done!!
