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.

Hi ladies! My sick little one is napping so I thought I would drop in real quick! It sounds like everyone is as anxious as I am for this hell week thing. Glad to know I am not alone. Just a thought, I sent my husband some inspirational, you are the best, kick a**, notes today. If this is as hard as it sounds maybe your boys could use a pick me up too!!
