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."

I wondered that also but I believe there are like 88 people in each Div. I might be wrong but I think I read that somewhere. I feel bad for the SR that is being sent home, thats so sad.

Yeah he said he felt bad for the kid because he saw a lot of potential in him. My husband is like that though, he wants everyone to succeed as much as he will.

Please keep sending letters - even parts of your local newspaper. My SR sounded fairly positive and appreciative.

That is great news, I have been wanting to send my son some info on the Browns & Indians.....we have joked that he is missing his teams more than he misses us. I just didn't want to get everyone in trouble.

I've sent the comics every Monday! My SR was referencing the comics and another article about the new cars. I just sent them in a manila envelope, 6x9 size.

I got a letter today and my SR said that their division failed so I don,t think it would be 337 just 338. He said the week has been awful that a lot of the SR's got their wisdom teeth out and are on bed rest and he has nothing to do but sit on the floor.Some of the older groups have told them that it does get better. Lets hope PIR is still on track.

From what I understand PIR shouldn't be an issue. They only gave the people who had teeth removed 2 days to rest. (Not much if you think about it.) The biggest issue is them getting it together and passing things like inspections. It is only week 3 though.
