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 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!!!

My older son got a letter Saturday saying  they were being tear-gassed last week and had to do the fire fighting and battle stations yet...news we had all figured out already. Apparently they are kept very busy all day long and some are still not being quiet at night.

It is doing me in!!!  LOL

Man your Battlestations- or Mom your Battlestations- Praying for 333 and 334 today!!

Started my drive from Florida today...I sure hope this drive isn't for nothing! I have faith that we will be getting our calls soon. Cautions wait to meet everyone!

Yay Florida!  My flight leaves on Thursday from Sarasota.  I am so glad I am not alone in freaking out about them not calling. 

Sending all my prayers to you and your recruits today and until we get to see their smiling faces! Be safe in your travels... Boy, I wish they would call :)

I so agree.  I can't wait to hear from my son.  I thought I was the only Mom who had not gotten a call yet, but it looks like many are in the same status - waiting. Cheers to all!

see you all on Thurs. Prayers for everyone on their travels. Prayers for our SR's for their battlestatiion when ever they do it.  :). Having said all along that I wanted a phone call we are going to be in the air tomorrow so I hope he doen't call then. lol

On my knees tonight and by the phone tomorrow!!

Philippians 4:6-7  do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.


Trust in the Lord.

Waiting patiently and expectantly! 

Me too!
