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."

We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

Received our first letter today from our son. We're excited because the letter is actually very informative. He has always been "a man of few words" and my husband was afraid this letter would be the same way. Not so. He sounded very up beat, despite the fact that the multiple shots he received made him "kind of sick." He said the only day that wasn't very enjoyable was the day he arrived. He had to get up at 3:30am on the 12th to go to MEPS and didn't get to sleep until midnight the next day. (I'm assuming he means midnight on the 14th because he called me at 1:30AM on the 13th to tell us he had arrived.) He said the food is really good. One day he had a turkey leg and there is always salad available for lunch and dinner. He said the division is very diverse, with people from all over the country and he has already made new friends. He said they usually get to sleep around 8 or 10 and are up between 4 and 6.

I think that there are more reading this than commenting. It's probably like a FB group that I belong to where we have 60something members but only 10 regularly comment. The others are there, just more shy about putting themselves out there. I use to be like that too but now I've learned I get even more out of the group when I interact with the other members. Although, reading is fine too. :)

I'm a little late joining this group. My son is one Div 370 and I plan to be there with his girlfriend. Still trying to figure out how to use this site.
