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 discussion group for divisions 333 & 334. 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.
Get to know each other, your SRs are!
Please still use the main wall to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like.
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!!!

Either the boys need to write or the post office needs to hurry up and deliver the mail. I know we only have 13 days left, but geez it sure is taking a long time to get a letter.
AMEN!!!
Yes, it does. I figure it takes one day for mail to get off base to the USPS and then 3 to 5 days to get across the country; several weekends, I got two letters at once and they were mailed on different days.
Got letter #4 today and he sounds GREAT, but so grown up! I miss my little boy, but proud of my young man! CANNOT wait to see, hug and talk to my son!!! IT IS NOT COMING FAST ENOUGH!!! We are staying at the Navy Lodge if anyone wants to gather that evening after Sarge's meet and greet, we can set something up at the Lodge!!!
After Sarge's?? I'm going to bed- I must be getting old. I want to wake up bright and early to see my boy!!
that sounds great. We are driving in from Dubuque Iowa that morning. We are from AZ but visiting family in Iowa first. It would be really great to do some visiting after Sarge's. We are staying at the Navy Lodge also. I am Jared's grandma, that is how you will know me.
Sounds great!!!
We are staying at the Navy Lodge as well - we get in at 6:30 pm so not sure if we will make it to Sarges - but are going to try - would be great to meet up after.
That sounds great..... I am sure we will all find each other with the BIG smiles on our faces!!
