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."

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.

AC in Florida is vital for the survival of the mind & body! When it goes down so do I. I'm looney tooney enough through these eight weeks I don't need another straw to break this camel's back. Flight reservations are made (YEAH) now just need a place to stay. The hotels on the Navy site are a bit expensive. I'll try the Ramada. Where else is everyone staying?
