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."

My SR mentioned that they are probably going to be able to get a phone call this week but that they'll need to 'earn' it and that not everybody gets one like they did for their last phone call. I'm sure all of our SR's are going to work extra hard this week in hopes to get that phone call!

Does anyone know what the flag for div 135 looks like?

Comment by Demi :) on March 22, 2011 at 2:56pm
Has anybody's SR's said anything about getting another phone call soon? Or is it just as unexpected to them as it is to us?

Just finished watching parts 1 & 2.

Wow, that was awesome!

Brought tears to my eyes near the end as I imagined my son experiencing the Honor of becoming a Sailor!!!

There is a great description of Battle Stations on the PIR 4/15/2011 site!

Look up on top under discussions...view all.  Then find the Subject "Battle Stations" by diannep.  There are also a pictures!

Awesome news Atibb!  I will be glad to get a letter from Doug, usually receive one on Wednesdays.
Comment by Atibb on March 22, 2011 at 8:08am
I got a letter yesterday dated 3/15. He said that he is doing well and that basic isn't as hard as he expected it to be. He's been enjoying the daily PT and said he's much rather be doing that then sitting, learning and studying. He said that he is a MPO, mail petty officer, so he's able to send out his own letters which makes him feel more secure knowing he's sending all that he's writing out ASAP. He also found out that his A school is shorter then he thought it was going to be so he'll be coming home sooner then he expected! Only 23 more days until we get to see all our handsome guys and salgs graduate. Hang in there everyone! It's right around the corner :)

Hi Everyone! I just found this site a few days ago and I'm still trying to navigate around it.  It is great to get letters from our guys ...and it's great to read the stories that you relay too!

Does anyone know how to get a Division T shirt?  I'm sure I saw an order form on this site but I can't locate it again?  : (
