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."

Your name must be on the list the SR provides RTC. He can only list four names. The initial list would be on the form letter. If he didn't have four names or if he wishes to change the names on the list he can still do it. I think I read that they have to have the final list submitted by week six but I'm not positive on that.
Sorry that you can't go. Have his parents and grandparents take lots of pictures and I am sure you'll find pictures here that the mom's will be posting.
Glad to hear he is doing well and I bet that made Lizzy's day!
i only go one letter so far, but two phone calls! hope everyone is doing well, i have a hard time with all this info and keeping it straight
Anyone know anything about TRIVIA TUESDAY'S on the RTC site on Facebook?
I just got a facebook account today and I'm trying to learn to navigate it. I read that if the loved ones of the SR's are the quickest to answer the question correctly they will take a picture of the whole division. The question is posted at 10am and I figure that is GL time, but I don't know exactly were it is posted. Anyone know? I want that prize of a picture of our division next Tuesday!!! Come on div 936 loved ones lets figure it out and try to win it! To see the pictures of past winners go to the wall of pictures the last pictures are the winning divisions for the last three weeks.
Thanks Boosmom....will be studying the Bluejacket Manual :-)
