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."

Welcome to the Division Discussion for Division 810 and 811

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 this discussion to answer your questions about the "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!!!

Looking for the moms of RA from Virginia and MC (not sure of state). They are both 811 and I think both are Air Rescue...Anyone?

Hi all!

My SR's bunkmate's last name starts with an A. He is Div 810. Send me a private message if your SR's last name begins with an A. Would love to connect. :)

Hi ya'll! What is the deal with the contest on the fB page for Great Lakes? I keep seeing on other pages that if you answer it correctly that they will post photos of your son's division on the page!!! I don't do FB anymore so I can't do it!! Are any of you 811 moms on that FB page??

Ive heard of this, but im not on the group...It would be really cool to get a picture though!! :)

The thing is we don't think if an 800 Div person wins that a picture can be posted ?????? Opsec ?????

Didn't even think of that! Oh dear, you might be right! 

I asked this question and was told they can, they sometimes don't say which div it is though. Just depends I guess. 

Thanks for checking! I hope that someone in our group (who is on Facebook) is good a Trivia!

Hey, Liberty!  Trivia Tuesdays!  I answered the question and was certain I was going to win because I was the first person to answer it correctly; however, someone named the act instead of the statute and won.  I was so peeved because they didn't specify - I cannot even tell you. I am going to get it next week though!  Thing is... I still can't find a Naval Appropriations Act that authorizes payment to postmasters for recruiting.  I needed validation, and can't find it.  Anyway... next week... :o)

Thanks! I am not on facebook so will you let me know when you win??? Good luck! Go get 'em!!!

The question was hard I thought :(

Finally got my first letter today!! He wrote it this past Sunday before he phoned me...Said he didnt write last Sunday cause he had just got back from the hospital at the end of their alotted writing time...Its been really nice to read & re read his words (no new info, he hadnt told me on the phone, but i keep looking at it anyway lol). Hope all you ladies, are doing okay & are hearing good things from your SRs! ♥
