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."

Does anybody know when we might get a phone call from our SR? Would the call come during the daytime? I'm sleeping with my cell phone!

Your first "real" call can come as early as the beginning of Training Week three (so end of actual first three weeks after arrival) and as late as the end of Training Week three...sometimes it can be later.
That first real call can be delayed for many reasons...the recruit was at an appointement ansd missed it when the Division called or they may have been standing watch (most of the time they get another opportunity). Sometimes they run out of time etc. Calls are never guaranteed...but they are hoped for! Nothing wrong with having hope! Keep your cells by your side...some slip them into their bra on vibrate! LOL
Here is a Discussion that talks about Calls from your SR.
