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."

SHIP 04, DIV 820 and DIV 821 Brother divisions....
This discussion is for those who have an SR in Ship 04, DIV 820 and 821, PIR 10/14/11. These are brother divisions and will be spending a lot of time together from what I understand. Remember OPSEC rules and for security purposes...no pictures of your SR or names of SR. God bless you all!

Hi ladies, does anyone with an SR know what happens if they can't take their last PST? My son has an ear infection that possibly has burst his drum by now making it impossible for him to heal his ear in time to so his pst, due to the swim portion. Thanks he's understandably concerned as am I.

We are praying for him and you Anne Darlene!! My son, too said that he is pretty sick and he was worried about some of the guys because they looked terrible. My heart hurts for our boys being sick and we aren't there to take care of them. As I said Anne - you are in our prayers!!!

Ann Darlene, navymom, BlueBetty, I want you to know that I will be praying for your boys as well as all of our boys to get and stay healthy and to be able to pass their final tests. It is so hard when we know they aren't feeling well. We will all keep praying...

Thanks Past45. I know they will do everything possible to ensure the boys pass on time. I have read that. There is still 15 days. Warrior Mom's praying is pretty powerful, so no worries Anne we got you covered! 2 weeks from today we will all be together toasting at the meet and greet!

Good morning ladies, yes I hope all the boys are well. Will pray for them through this trivial time in their training. It is flu season now and they are all bunched up together, so they will be sharing airborne viruses. I hope it is a short spell and will pass soon, and they regain their strength and motivation, regroup and push too. All my prayers are with them all. Have a bless day.
