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."

Ship 12 (USS Triton) Divisons 029 & 030 (Brother Divisions)
Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 029 & 030
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!

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!!!

Still no letter from SR. Given his propensity for electronic communication I am not sure he even knows how to write a letter. I did send him a question form letter just so I might have a chance at getting something. :)

My son is Ship 12 DIV 030. We have not received a letter from him yet but our form letter came about 10 days ago. Has anyone gotten a letter from their son or daughter from this division?

My son is Ship 12 DIV 030. We have not recieve a personal letter yet. We are planning to attend PIR. I am new to the military, two generations removed. Son's great grandfather became a sailor at Great Lakes in 1944. So I have a lot to learn. Is the ship two divisions all bubbleheads? or is it a mix? We are from Washington State and planning on attending the meet and greet. Hope to meet you'all there.

Bubbleheads=any Sailor stationed on a submarine.
Recruits are not separated while in BC, except for the spec ops divisions.
So skimmers
and bubbleheads
are together.
