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."

Div 818 PIR 9/2
Information
As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

My son writes that his division is really beginning to come together & not so much extra PT being given to them. They had their first real inspection & he said he did perfect on both! So awesome to hear that!! He asked me if I would bring him one of his favorite "Mom baked specialties" for after PIR! He was kinda worried that I wouldn't be able to bring it on the plane....but ladies this is a request from my soon to be Sailor & I will totally make sure I wrap it up good & get it on that plane with me! I hope you all have letters today too!
