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."

Any more communication from our SR's ladies? I keep hoping, but that darn maillady just doesn't bring me anything! We used to have a problem w/ mail on our road getting randomly delivered to each others mailboxes. If that's started again and someone has my letters - and hasn't given them to me yet, boy, there's gonna be trouble! :-)))

Fingers crossed for you! I got 2 letters today Division 340 Moms be on alert My son said his division is getting to call home on 9-27 because they did well on the PFA PI and WTI (whatever that means) Also said they got 3 B.Z's (not sure if that is good or bad) He said he is getting stronger everyday but tired all the time. In all caps said "I CAN'T WAIT TO GRADUATE" In the other letter he said they did the marlin spike and lost to their brother div 339 (bummer). One of his bunkmates became their POC and another bunkmate MC---- (can't make it out Tyler's writing is atrocious) got Asnod for being allergic to bees! Does this sound like anyone of your S.R's?? He was also pretty happy and said he got his debit card and checkbook on the 16th and more importantly he got paid!

PI-Personal Inspection
PFA Physical Fitness Assesments
WTI Weapon Turnover Inspection.
BZ means Bravo Zulu which is well done.
But what is Asnod? -

ASNOD--got me but I think it means they got sent to another division. I am thinking maybe he got stung by bees and got sick and wont be able to grad on time because of it.??? Just a thought.

Anyone know what a OCR drill inspection is?

I think it is supposed to be ASMO'd, which is sent back or separated from the navy.

I (personally) just started getting letters yesterday (2) and 2 today. His Dad has been gtting them all alog but Tyler said that the letters he wrote to me earlier had been returned to him he didn't tell me why but I'm sure it has to do with his penmanship. So don't worry it the next letter you send your SR make sure you tell him you haven't gotten any letters. That worked for me!
