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."

Hi AnissaH594,
I'm fairly new to the page too. I was having a hard time figuring out how to get to certain things. My son called Saturday, but no letters yet. My son had a wicked cold when he called.
I was trying to figure out what time on Tuesdays they post the trivia question to the recruit page, I asked but no one got back to me. Do you know?

I have been anxious to get a real letter. However, I do have to keep telling myself that my son is not a letter writer! He did call last Saturday morning - the call came in from a pay phone - and he sounded very upbeat. He said that the group was coming together and get bunch of people.

Hi all.. Ship 14 Div 135. I received a very encouraging letter from my SR yesterday. He is a section leader and loving BC! His only complaint was the "about 100 or so shots" he received. I hope all you moms are holding up well. Time should go more quickly now!

Hi AnissaH, We're from Ct, so my SR is accustomed to cold weather. I er.hope they have warm blankets on those uncomfortable racks. I guess your SR's division and mine's are brother divisions and do a lot of training together.

My boy is 14/136. We're from Texas. Briefly spoke to him when he needed an address but haven't heard from him other then that. He sounded good then though. He's always been pretty adaptable and independent so I suspect he's doing ok.
