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."

SRA: Did they set your friend's daughter back into FITT? She may get another chance to try (I assume this is the run) tomorrow, and if she passes, she would go through BStations tomorrow night with the next group and be at PIR. That happens alot...
-
-
Megan: All of the PFA requirements are based on their ages. I believe they are broken down like this: under 20, 20-24, 25-29, etc. They get more leniency if they are older...but then, their bodies are older too!
-
-
Megan: Yes, they normally will have BStations 2 nights before PIR in most groups. Yes, that means that family is "en route" to GL for the I'm a Sailor calls (so set your cell phone greeting to welcome your sailor's call if you might be in flight with your phone off...ask that he/she calls back alot to leave many messages for you to receive when you land). They'll do fine!
B's proud mom: The only way 27 is going tonight is if:
PIR 12/17 finished all of their BattleStations last night and is not going tonight (we don't know), and...
If 25, 26 and 28 are going with them. 25 and 26 have to either go at the same time with 27 and 28, or before them. Lowest div number to highest...

I really don't think we will hear from our recruits until they have completed BS.

Per a previous e-mail, BS is done in division order. 26, 27, 28 etc.
