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."

That's also my hope, and I agree that it's hard enough! I'm sure this isn't the first rowdy division, even the first this month I'd bet. God bless the RDCs they know what they're doing and will correct - just stinks for the rest of the recruits.

I just found this site today and my son is in ship 09 division 370. He did tell me that there is many SR's who were not very well behaved and because of them they all got punished. He said he was tired of paying for everyone elses mistakes. It made me so upset to hear his voice brakeing.

Good grief! My son is in the brother div 369. Are they being rebellious also?

mine too ....oh man...He has a wife and 2 small children and had been going through a very rough time in the last 2 years before he shipped out. I so hope this isnt making it worse he really needs to do well in there. He had decided to join to make a better life for them.

Txnavymom, my son is in 369, he said there's a few kids in there that do not behave, one in particular and he has so many marks against him. I hate the fact that when one screws up they ruin it for everyone else!!!

Just got my first letter! Very short, but very sweet. I told my husband when he called he could write "I love you and miss you" and I'd be happy. Its weird, but it feels so good to have something that I know he touched....

Hello Ladies, my SR GF just got her letter; the only problem is she left for college earlier in the week and now her mom has to mail it to her. I feel sorry for her. But that means when I get home I will have mail. I can't wait. :P

This is going to happen to me this week. I was supposed to be heading to denver for the next month for Vacation with some family. And now my plans have been delayed, so my letter will go to the wrong address :-( I'm going to make them overnight it to me when it arrives in Denver lol
