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."

OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance. Please take the timeto read the OPSEC and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names of Sailors/Recruits are not allowed on this site. If it is in your username you will need to change your username. If yours is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends".

Comment by Angie CTT/Pensacola on September 12, 2012 at 4:36pm: Have anyone heard anything from Mom of 2? I'm wondering how her daughter did today.

Comment by lindagr41 - Ship 12 Div 295/296 on September 12, 2012 at 4:34pm: Yes sorry Saturday..the early morning hours after PIR

Comment by lindagr41 - Ship 12 Div 295/296 on September 12, 2012 at 4:26pm: His poor wife is shattered. They will only have a few hours together before having to be back on base. Than he's gone for 9 more weeks. A school in MS, we live in IN. Not sure when we can get him his stuff.

Comment by Ship 14- Division 290 on September 12, 2012 at 4:25pm: Linda....you mean Saturday right? Friday is PIR. Where is is heading? Wondering if he is heading to the same place ours is, as we haven't heard any info on his arrangements yet.

Comment by lindagr41 - Ship 12 Div 295/296 on September 12, 2012 at 4:24pm: Mat is flying out @ 1:30am Friday morning.

Comment by Ship 14- Division 290 on September 12, 2012 at 4:21pm: Linda...where is your son's A school?

Comment by coastieet on September 12, 2012 at 4:19pm: Just catching up, had to run some errands prior to leaving.

Thank you ANGIE!!!!!

Comment by Angie CTT/Pensacola on September 12, 2012 at 4:18pm: lLindagr41 your son is flying out when?

Comment by Stacy - Virginia Beach, VA on September 12, 2012 at 4:17pm: Oh no lindagr......600!!! So, how can they get their phones, computers, etc....? not much time to visit!!

Comment by lindagr41 - Ship 12 Div 295/296 on September 12, 2012 at 4:15pm: My son called my daughter in law. He is beat and could hardly speak. He said that he has to be back on base at 7:30p the 14th, his flight to A-school leaves at 1:30a. They also changed the rules and we are not allowed to see him off at the airport because there are 600 guys flying out and having 600 families would cause a security issue.
