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."

Hello.  Anyone out there with the same div?  My daughter left for BC on the 24th of May.  I received her box on Tuesday and it was hard not to cry.

Sorry girls I've been out of commission for awhile. Meant to call you Karen but got sick. Got Tyne form letter and said July 29 but I think it will be sooner. The only thing is how do you plan with air and hotel it's hard to pick a date.I'm doing much better. Looking forward to graduation and seeing a whole new Brittni! I love her. God bless her and keep her.
There is a regional training command Facebook paged I asked if there was possibility that the date would change and they said no it would not change. Did you get a letter from her yet?
Do y'all have different zip codes? I got one from recruiter one from he letter and then one from the form letter.

Graduation date of July 29. With a possibility earlier grad. I have only received 1 letter while her sister h received 3! What's up with that? She's crying and wondering why she even joined. But I'm hoping things change as time goes on.
 sbeechl, I hope things do get better for her. It just may be the adjustment period. I have only received 1 letter from Mariah, and I still have not received the form letter.... I miss her so much......

Hey everyone!  My daughter is in Ship 12 Div 231 and the PIR  date is July22.  We also are staying at the Navy Lodge. Check out  the  U.S. Navy Recruit Training  Command facebook site. There are serveral of us in the same div. on there. You can ask questions and someone from the Training Command  will answer.

My son is in Ship 02 Div 937.

What is his name? Brittni said there were around 40 girls in her barracks.
My son's name is Brian.  We have not gotten a phone call other than the first one when he arrived.  He has been writing letters.  We got 3 letters and the form letter.  He said that he passed his swim test and that he got all 4 of his wisdom teeth pulled and was allowed to listen to music after the novocaine injection while they were taking the teeth out.  He picked the song "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys!
We have only received a total of 4 letters. And she was very happy she didn't have any wisdom teeth.
