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."

Anyone else have an SR in this division? I am patiently waiting for my letter. You should also join the forum on the RTC facebook for this division.

I really hope the guys got to write this Sunday. My heart hurts, I miss my son so very much. :(
I hope they realize how much we miss them!!! LOL. I can't believe two weeks has already passed. It feels like yesterday we were saying goodbye to them. I'm so excited to see them again, but so sad to say Goodbye again :(
But at least we will be able to talk to them!!! I am moving to FL so I am very excited for that!!!! They get weekends off usually during training and stuff it's not as hard and they have so much training to get through it will be a couple of years before they're stationed and deployed at least and we will be well prepared for that!
Ok....I have a question. i just received my first letter with my son's ship and division as 04-809? Is there even an 809? His pir date- 3/16. I ask this because above listed divisions are 807-808. Does anyone out there have this 809? Thanks!
I heard from my SR and slept better than I have since he left! He sounds good.
Last night and today have been really hard. My man and I had a routine every weekend. Its hard to break tradition.
