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."

Good Morning Lisa - my husband left on May 1st as well. I was thinking the PIR date would be July 6th. I counted 9 weeks since there is almost a week of "processing" (paperwork, dental exams, etc.) before they even get to start the actual training. I believe they are just getting settled into their actual training area right now. I could be wrong but that was my calculation. Also I called the recruiter and got his address. His division is 201, which I do not see listed under the 6/29 PIR group. Let me know what you think. It looks like we are in the same boat waiting for the form letter.

The reason we don't have the Divisions listed for this PIR date is that RTC has not released them yet. They normally post the new TG's on Mondays once it is finally formed. Sometimes it is later in the week when it is a larger TG.
So hopefully next Monday we will see the official results. What we do in the meantime is "guestimate" and go on Form Letter info when it is received.
