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.

Stand, Navy, out to sea, Fight our battle cry;
We'll Never change our course, So vicious foe steer shy-y-y-y
Roll out the TNT, Anchors Aweigh, Sail on to victory
And sink their bones to Davy Jones, hooray!
Anchors Aweigh, my boys, Anchors Aweigh.
Farewell to foreign shores, We sail at break of day, of day.
Through our last night on shore, Drink to the foam,
Until we meet once more, Here's wishing you a happy voyage home!

Lydia, what a great idea to compose a form letter. I've asked so many questions but never in a way that he can just circle & return. I'm going to start working on mine tonight! Before my son left he told everyone, "I'll finally learn how to make a bed." I wanted to strangle him! What have I been trying to teach him all these years?! I, too, am trying to envision my son in tighty whities. He's a boxer kind of guy!
