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 003 and 004

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!!!

FYI! ...A couple of the people on the Facebook PIR 11/15 who have SR's in Ship 12, dot phone calls today and were told that the ship move was postponed until possibly the 28th. Who knows I guess we'll find out.  Either way, if you've addressed mail to Ship 9, there is only one Div 3 or 4 so they'll get the mail.  I guess for now we're back to the Ship 12 address. I'll let you know if I hear more and you all say if you do.

Has anyone heard from there recruits on ship 12 div 003

only by letter.  haven't talked to my SR since the 12th.  You?

I have not heard except for the letter I received Friday. Hoping for a phone call tomorrow. Maybe if we all wish for it will come lol
23 more days to go!!!!

We received a letter from our son and he says he's doing well but he didn't mention if he would be changing 'ships'. I still have no idea if that's true or not. He also mentioned that he might be able to call us until Battlestations...a few more weeks to go!!!

Got a letter woo hoo son got promoted to E2
Waiting anxiously for that last call today!!!! Hope they all passed through battle stations!
