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 aboard Nascarbobby2!!!
Cant' wait until February:) Hasn't anyone received a second call from the Div 911 SR? I've rec'd several letters but just the one call:(
I like the silver scarf idea. We can't be the only ones not doing something!!!

Silver it is! Nope...no more phone calls yet. The next one I'm expecting is the"I'm a sailor" call after Battlestations...but I'm HOPING for one before then!!!

Has anyone's SR in DIV 911 written about their date for Battle Stations yet? I was hoping my daughter would have mentioned it in her letter this week, but no such luck. I had asked her about it in one of my letters last week, but it seems like her mail from me is still about at least a week or so delayed before she gets it. I just can't stand it! I am soooo anxious to hop on that plane and go see her! Hopefully, these last few weeks will fly by! ;o)

A bit of good news from this week's letter from my daughter ... it sounds like this division is now coming together! ;o) She wrote about a really good friendship she now has with a couple of other SRs from this division. This is a very good sign, considering the struggles during the first few weeks of BC!

Hi Sherry when i spoke to my sr a couple of weeks ago he stated that battle stations were Jan 30th I'm not 100% sure but I know it was the end of January. He said that he would be able to call home before he went in and then when he got done.

Thanks! Well, I really like the sound of possibly getting another phone call before BattleStations! I won't hold my breath, but man-o-man would that ever be a great boost for our DIV, huh?! ;o) Anyone else hear anything from their SR about BattleStations date for 911?

Shelly -- I've added your 4 ribbons for Chris on our order! I can't wait! I am having such a hard day today at work, and then not being able to concentrate (because I just can't seem to get my daughter off my mind!) is only making it worse ... bummer! Well ... tomorrow's Friday! and one more day closer to our Recruits! ;o)

Hey All!! I just got a letter from my SR "Stripper" and he said Battlestations were on the 31st. I am going to have my phone with me all day on the 31st!! :)

Aprilan...that's great! If BattleStations is on the 31st, then we should expect our I'm a Sailor call the morning of the 1st...oh, I just can't wait!

I'm not taking any chances though...my phone will be with me, even if I have to put it in a plastic zip lock bag to bring it in the shower with me!!! LOL! (on second thought...maybe I'll just take my shower the night before!!) ;o)
