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."

Ship 04 (USS Arleigh Burke) Divisions 804 and 805 (Brother Divisions)
Welcome to the Division Discussion for division 804 and 805.
Be very aware when posting about your SRs who are in this division. Make sure you read the OPSEC rules (everyone should).
sjtina, cor and a couple more ladies will be joining you to answer your questions about this "800" division. Although your SR is still in BC, what they are doing may be slightly different from what the other divisions in this training group are doing. It is also recommended that you go into your "settings" (clickable link on the right side) and change your privacy setting to "private" and change everything to friends only.
Please still use the main wall to post general questions, and concerns, such as meet and greet questions etc. Specific questions regarding the 800 division should be posted here.
We “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like to, and the ladies helping out with the 800 divisions don't always get to the main wall as often as they would like.
Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine
Every single member is important to us
We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there ladies!!!

Yahooooo! I got another phone call yesterday day from B. He is in 805. They won the captains cup! The reward was a trip to Recruit Heaven. It is on the base some where and there is fast food....and phones. They had a half hour to an hour to eat and make calls! Friday is the PIR I am so excited. There is a tremendous chance that 805 will be in the hall of fame what ever that means. I am so proud of the twins. I wish A. Was in 805 so I would hear from him just as often. A. Is in 804. B. says that 804 is doing ok but doesn't hold a candle to 805. Typical smack talk for the twins.

Hi Richard... Congrats to your SR B. and congrats to SR A. as well from my understanding they did take 2nd so they must be doing something right... I was excited to see your post as my SR who is also in 804 mentioned your sons to me. I felt like I already had a connection to them when I saw this. Looking forward to meeting you in a few days.

txtrained, I'm right there with you. I'm going crazy waiting for the call. I feel like a kid waiting to go to Disneyland. These next 2 1/2 days can't come fast enough.
Looking forward to meeting you all in person. Safe travels to all.

I know you said SpecOp Sailor mom but does this only apply to SpecOps as my friends all posted their Sailors pictures on FB? Also is this just in regards to their official picture or those we took with family after graduation and around Chicago tomorrow? Sorry if these sound like silly questions I'm just a new Sailor mom and want to make sure I do things right.

Hi all,
It was so nice meeting many of you the other night! PIR was beautiful:) Our sailor has been wonderful, happy, talkative, etc. It has been so great spending time with him. I also just wanted to say thank you again to this group. It helped me so much through the roller coaster ride of Bootcamp. On to Pre-Buds and SEAL mom group ladies????
