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."

So, it's the same whether the recruit orders it or you order it at PIR?

For those that are going to PIR, are you planning on leaving on Sunday or on Monday? I don't want to cut our time short if our sailors have liberty for most of Sunday.

Got 3 letters!!! Says he is doing good just tired. He said that he might have a section leader job. So thats good. Says that he has life insurance now lol.Said his Div was getting in trouble because most of the SR's are really young and cant get it together...Also its really hard to tell what day it is...pardon the french but this is a quote from the letter "I dont even know what day it is now. It just seems like everything is one big cluster fuck' lol!! He said that he got issued his digis and he says he looks really good in them lol! That was about it! Hope everyone else gets their letters!! Its sooooo worth the wait!!!

Hope you all had a great day...sorry I wasn't around much..I am so excited to watch this group come together...I imagine it is much like how our recruits feel watching their divisions come gether. Initially hardly anyone spoke, then y'all spoke mostly to Jessica and I, and now suddenly multiple conversations are happening across the board. That is happening for our recruits as well. Have a great weekend! Just think our recruits will be writing letters again. My prayer is that those who didint' get one last will this week!!
