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 09 / DIV 146
Hey there! Just a place for family of SRs in Ship 09 (USS John F Kennedy) Division 146 to get together and chat, ask questions, and discuss whatever. :) I'm new to this, so anyone who has a heads up on anything regarding the ribbons (LaLa Ribbon Queen I believe is who we need to contact) and stuff like Sarge's Meet-and-greet, feel free to enlighten the rest of us!
Curious about WHERE exactly at RTC your recruits barracks are? Check out this diagram of the RTC.

Received another letter, my SR sounds great, says things are going good. They are moving right along. Sounds like this Division still needs to work on somethings. I sure hope they get it together for PIR.. Only 19 days :) it will be here before we know it.. No word on Battle Stations.

You need to remove the date. Even if you don't know for sure that's the date, we cannot post BS21 dates! Message Dianne the date, please. :) Keeping the date confidential is sort of like OUR training in OPSEC. Like our test run. Lol
It's something we just have to learn that a LOT of info we know, we can't share. -

Got a really nice letter from my hubby today!! He made Honor Guard, so after Basic he goes to Washington D.C. and after 6-8 weeks of training we get to move there with him! Soo exciting! Glad he is able to this, I know not a lot of people get to do it! But he was kinda down because the division is still getting introuble a lot and he said quite a few still dont get it... And hes worried about the next few events because they really rely on teamwork and they are not working as a team yet.. and that their division is so bad that the RDCs are being reviewed...
