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."

MidwestMomNancy, The recruits in the divisions do not necessarily have the same rating, except 800 divisions would all be spec ops ratings.
There usually are several within a division or brother division that do have the same rating, because that was a "job" open at the time of enlistment. I would guess there will at least be a few that will be following your son to A School.

We got the form letter today! Our son is in Div. 242. Now, I can't wait for a phone call!

DaBunzie, You mean PIR 07/17 not 07/15 correct? There would not be a PIR on the 15th.

I'm sure you've all probably already checked out the RTC facebook page...but if not, on the 28th, they posted 140 pictures of the new recruits. I wasn't lucky enough to see my son in any of them (and believe me, I looked good and hard), but perhaps some of you will have better luck!

So happy to get our form letter. Our son is in Div 241..

I haven't received my form letter yet, but I was VERY surprised and EXTREMELY happy to get a call from my son yesterday! I wasn't expecting a call from him so soon. Hoping that the letter comes soon. Knowing that the majority of you are receiving yours, makes me hopeful that mine will come soon.
