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.

Lydia I can only imagine what you've been going thru. Thank God everything is turning out. But your Ben would have made it even if he was set back. I can tell he's strong and detemined with a great attitude. Those RDC's don't sound so terrible. They let him call you when he answered the phone. How cool was that. God works in mysterious ways.

Hi everyone, I tried to call the PR number to see is my son is grad and go. I was too late they close at 4pm. Guess I will try again Monday if work is not too busy.
So are they saying 818 is grad and go? How many people are in a division? They are all special ops right? Hope I am allowed to ask that. Someone tell me if I am not supposed to say that.
