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."

fcorbett, PIR date is July 6th. Did you get a form letter yet? My son arrived to Great Lakes on May 8th and I received the form letter that following Monday on May 14th.

No, I haven't received it yet. I emailed his recruiter to see if he knows anything. I've heard it can take anywhere from 1-3 weeks to get it. I sure hope it comes soon, just so I'll know for sure and it's official. So our son's are in the same division?

I am surprised you haven't got it yet. Like I said he got there on the 8th and I received it on the 14th. So it sounds like our son's know each other. I am from Oregon, where are you from?

bobbysmom and tribesullivan, I will be praying that all three of us hear from our sons next week! What's up with Division 207 anyway? As for me, I will be celebrating, and I truly hope I will be at home when he calls....hard to take a cell phone call at work, but you better believe I will if at all possible!
