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.

If you don't already know, I am doing a spread sheet for PIR 04/09 so that we can see who is where, what they will be doing, etc. That way we can keep up after PIR. I am listing the following:
N4M's name
ship/division
Hometown and state
your first name
whether you have a son/daughter/husband/boyfriend
your recruit's first name
where they are going to A school
what their job will be
Are you attending PIR
Where are you staying
Are you attending Meet and Greet
If you already sent it Thanks - If not please send as soon as possible.
You should be able to copy this message and fill it in and send it to me. Let's hope we get some reward calls so we will know more about BS. Thanks Waterman. I am going to post this on the groups I belong to. Please pass this along, I hope to finish it and post it soon.

Navywife, thanks for all the info. Texas and Judy I will send up prayers. Ship 13 Division 151 and Ship 13 Division 152 are brother groups, my son is Ship 13 Div. 152. Someone said that their recruit does schedules and that BS starts on 04/01. I don't know who I will have to try to find it. I hope Captain's Cup remains fun and not to competitive. I think they deserve a little R & R. Linda if the schedule for BS is correct then that would mean this Saturday is Captain's cup. I think it gets a little fuzzy for us as we are a push through group. I am going to do some looking to see what else I can find.

so how will we know what the actual date is? we haven't gotten a call since the first few weeks when recruit needed info...
-

yes, my son has said the same thing, I have been praying for them all and will continue to do so... although in his last letter, he said they were doing a little bit better, so yay for anything positive at this point... who knows, this weeknd may be a turning point for them all
-
-
yes, I believe they are, thank you so much!
-
-
yes we will... not sure but that may be my daughters brother unit.. can't recall.
my daughter is ship 13 div 152 .. i believe they will overcome... god bless!
-
-
maybe the competition this saturday will help them bond somewhat...
-

thank you everyone for the info provided, this helps tremendously... and I, like you waterman, like to pray with knowledge, it helps when you know specifically what to ask for... I would like to ask if anyone is so inclined that they pray for my son's division and that they are able to overcome issues and differences and can come together as a team on this one and succeed beyond their wildest imagination... they really need to...and I pray that all divisions come thru with flying colors!
