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."

I see you've joined the group, PIR 11/30/2012 TG 3. Know that divisions 019 and 020 are brother divisions and train together and will have Battle Stations-21 together, so look for others with loved ones in either division. There will be a discussion within that group for the two divisions.
I see you've joined Boot Camp Moms; you may also want to join, or at least check out, PIR Reference Information, and New Members Stop Here. You may also want to check out Women in the Navy, Mom’s of Navy Daughters, and Mom's of Daughters 2.

There are all male divisions and integrated divisions (male and female). There was recently the first all female division (Division 317) in recent history, which was sponsored by the WAVES. The females of the two brother divisions bunk together and the males of the two brother divisions bunk together.
