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 Divisions 305 and 306
These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.

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!!!

That's what day of training they are on. Look at this page: http://www.navydep.com/forums/showthread.php?t=433. I dont know how accurate it is. My son told me on Tuesday they were already done with all the medical, dental, shots. I think they are what's called a "push" division meaning they will run on an accelerated schedule to hit their graduation date with the rest of the group, so maybe their day-to-day is a little different. But at least it's something to follow :)

Day by day schedule for a PUSH is different. Things are not always done on the same day, and some things might not even be the in the same week as the schedule.
