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."

My son is in ship 9, Div 006. Last year when our daughter was at bootcamp, she was in ship7, aslo div005. 006 was her brother division during BC and now her brother's division. Does that make sense?
Tustin Ranch is about 15 minutes away.

Hello Everyone. Thank you for the welcomes. I live in Rancho Cucamonga. My recruit is in bc and PIR on 11/12.
Darsete- I left you a message but don't know if you received it. Thanks for the friend invite.
JM-ISmom- Some of my family live in Tustin Ranch and I love it out there. Are you close to there?
It is so nice to see Navy Moms from the same area.

JM-ISmomx2 - what division is your son in? My son left 9/23, but was the last group in so I'm assuming they were waiting to fill up his division from the group that arrived the following week. He is division 005

Andrew left the 30th for GL. He has divisioned up and we have his address. Since the numbers are showing a stop at Div004 for a PIR of 11/19 it is with a good assumption that his PIR will be 11/24. Turkey day in Chicago.

I'm in Orange and my son should, we will see, PIR on 11/24 also.

Real close, I am the next town south of Perris and west of Hemet.

Hi everyone,
My son arrived at Great Lakes on 9/23. Just found out today that he will not PIR on 11/19 but the week of Thanksgiving. Ouch. I live in Menifee, CA. Anyone else in the area?

Hello everyone. I am so glad that I found a SoCal group.
