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 04 (USS Arleigh Burke) Division 803
Welcome to the discussion group for division 803.
Be very aware when posting about your SRs who are in this division. Make sure you read the OPSEC rules (everyone should).
sjtina, cor and a couple more ladies will be joining you to answer your questions about this "800" division. Although your SR is still in BC, what they are doing may be slightly different from what the other divisions in this training group are doing. It is also recommended that you go into your "settings" (clickable link on the right side) and change your privacy setting to "private" and change everything to friends only.
Please still use the main wall to post general questions, and concerns, such as meet and greet questions etc. Specific questions regarding the 800 division should be posted here.
We “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like to, and the ladies helping out with the 800 divisions don't always get to the main wall as often as they 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 ladies!!!

Felicia - glad you heard from your son. Hope he feels better soon and can get back in the swing of things. I'm sure the RDC's are being tough on them and being sick doesn't help. Keep your chin up... hopefully letters coming soon

Welcome 803. I am a veteran 800 mom whose son started his journey with a SEAL contract. This division is made up of a variety of different rates, so bare with with me. Hopefully I can help answer some questions, especially if your son will be heading to PreBuds. I will try to get some SWCC, EOD, Navy Diver, and Air Rescue veteran moms to help with the different specialties.
I can hopefully help make these next few weeks a little easier.

Donna, they rarely show 800 divisions, but it has happened. If they do, please be careful not to openly point out which one your son is. You do not want the instructors to be able to link the tow of you together. They will eventually read these posts out loud in front of the recruits, which can be embarrassing and cause additional PT.
