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 division 952.

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 of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area 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 daughter is also going to SA for MA. She wrote that she made new friends, hope they are all together.

Still no phone call, gong on 3 weeks.:((

Our son requested that we send him a cross to wear, does anyone know if you send a religious artical to them they will get it? We bought a cross and plan to have Father bless it before we send it, we won't be sending the chain, just the cross. Thanks to all and we hope everyone recieves a call today and a letter on Wed.

Make sure it's silver! My husband took a gold one with him and they won't let him wear it. I just had to send him a silver one so he can wear it

It is silver and I will send it with the next letter, which I will mail in a hour, thanks

Received a  phone call a few minutes ago. Call was quick again and SR is doing fine.

Got a ten minute phone call an hour ago! He's doing good and says he may be switching his job to the religious leader. I sent him a hug from our son ( I traced his outline on paper) which made every one in his barrack cry. Can't wait for graduation

Does anyone in this group (Ship 02 Div 953) know what the official week they are in? Are they about to go into Stations?

Kitten says Hello Good morning!

                                         

Good morning all, did anyone in 952 get calls from their SR, still waiting for mine to call.
Praying for everyone to get a letter this week!:)
Congrats guys! We hit the thirty day mark! Anyone else getting excited or picked an outfit yet?

Very excited here! As for what to wear, I have no idea. How about you?
