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."

Hi my SR called us Friday. He explained that this week is week 3 of training. The first week and a half (arrived may 25th) was P week (processing week). Last week was week 2. This is 3. He said week 3 and 4 are the hardest. They call week 4 is HELL WEEK. So keep those letter going. I know it is hard to wait for those cards and letters but remember it isn't our SR's....they have to have permission. Would you like to talk to our RDC's mothers!!!! :-)

Glad to hear you got to talk to him, Mary! I guess I thought they all got to call on Sunday, but I read somewhere that there are 78 recruits in there division. Not sure if that is right or not. Forgot to ask my son that question. Anyway, stands to reason that it would take more than on day to let everyone call, as I am sure they only allow a small window (a couple of hours maybe?) for the calls. I know my son could only talk about 10 minutes. Letters should begin arriving for us today. I expect mine tomorrow, though. Can't wait to hear news from everyone on how things have been for their recruit!
