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."

Hello. Have you heard from your SR? My son is in 282. I'm still waiting for a call or letter

I had a business only call from him awhile back but could only talk addresses. It looks like letters went out Monday. Some 282s letters started arriving at houses as early as yesterday but they live very close to GL. Based on the time frame it took me to get the form letter, I'm thinking today may be my letter day.

My SR is 282. He says he has made several friends. He is a bit homesick especially for his little brother

Just received my second letter from my SR, he said on his letter sometimes they have good days and bad days, and he miss showering by himself and go for a drive when he wants to get away. over all he said it's not that hard, 30-45 minutes of Pt and 8-10 hrs of sleep :)

ellen502 in my SR letter I received from him yesterday and dated July 12th, division 282 is moving this Saturday to Ship 06, I would assume 281 would move with them but not sure. So division 282 will now be in Ship 06.

Not unusual to have recruits moved to a different ship, but usually don't have them in ship 06. The 900 divisions used to be housed in that ship, but haven't been for a while. There are also divisions from another TG making the same move to Ship 06, I am finding this interesting. Guessing the RTC is filling up. :)
Thank you for the information, and yes it would be both divisions that would move. I will change the group title in a few days.
