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 293 and 294

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!!!

Been away on vacation for past couple days. Can't wait to get back home to see if I got a letter!
Happy to hear you got a letter, Sandra!!!

I am so excited that our kids are halfway done! I am so excited to see Zac in one month, whoop whoop!! Tomorrow can't get here fast enough, I'm hoping for letters! Last week I had four from him, but two of those were "form letters" that I had him fill out and send back to me. It was awesome getting all of that information all at once. He said the beds suck, the food is good, the RDC's are cool sometimes, he has some good buddy's that he is kicking butt with and that the division has lost quite a few recruits for various reasons. #30days

Hi All!  Jenn, I'm with you - we are at the half-way point!  So excited for PIR.  We did get some letters today, and my daughter sounds great.  I also had a surprise phone call from her on Tuesday because she needed additional information for her security clearance.  She said that maybe they will get to do phone calls on Saturday, so make sure to keep your phones close by!!

Does anyone have news on when the next call will be?

praying for all to pass their final tests during week 6-  Here's to two more Fridays until we can hug our loved ones!!!!

Good morning all!  Well next week this time we will all be getting ready to attend PIR!!  I don't know about all of you, but it seems to be all I can think about!  Praying for all of them to pass through Battlestations.  Hope to meet everyone at Sarge's Meet & Greet!
