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."

My grandson is in Divn 036. We've only received the form letter, no other letters. We've also only received the initial phone call. We were hopeful we were going to hear from today, but we didn't. Has anyone else in 036 received a letter or "real" phone call?

I did yet a letter on Thursday. But as far as I know there haven't been any Div 036 phone calls yet.
