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."

Anyone have loved one on ship 6 division 090?

Hi everyone.  My son is in Ship 6 Division 090.  I received a call from him this week and it was so good to hear from him.  I received a letter yesterday from him too.  I am looking forward to getting to know you to support each other and our children.  He told me his division is a 'push' division which is why they are graduating a week early.  Is that because of the holidays? 

Very proud of him and all his fellow recruits that are still pushing through.

Tracy, there is info about a "Push Division" in Arrival and What Happens at the RTC and What does ??? mean? (A Guide to Navy Abbreviations and Terminology). Since Divisions 089 and 090 are among the last divisions in the TG, they will be among the last divisions to go through Battle Stations-21 (BST) and so you will receive the "I'm a Sailor!" call only a day or so before PIR. Write and ask your recruit the date so you will know when to expect the call for sure, but do not openly post the date when you find out.

My son is also on Ship 06 Div 090. I just received his letter on Friday. He called and the one time I didn't have my phone with me, I missed his call. I was hoping I would hear from him today but no luck. Merry Christmas All!

Has anyone received letters or calls from their SR? I have not heard from him at all. Can anyone give me an update on how they are doing? Please and thank-you!
