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 (USS Arleigh Burke) Divisions 819 & 820 (brother divisions)
Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 819 & 820. It only happens a few times a year when there are two special ops groups in one TG.
Please be very aware when posting about your SRs who are in one of these divisions. Although they are still in BC, what they are doing may be slightly different from what the other division are doing. Make sure you read the OPSEC rules (everyone should).

May try to change our flight arrangements if I can. One guy from here who had a SWCC contract was able to come home in between and another with a SEAL contract also did so I just had no idea. But I don't know how all that worked out.

My son was in that ship and division and I got a new form letter yesterday saying the graduation day was now Oct 5th. He has a new division and ship number and I don't know what is going on. No letter. No information. Has anyone else heard what happened or have any info what so ever?

Your son was on Ship 04 Div 820? My son is that division as well but didn't receive anything. And where did you NurseP read that???

It was on this site but couldn't figure out what division their son was in. If you didn't receive anything and I didn't then I would assume everything is ok. I read above this post and Tea 3 said that she got a new form letter yesterday saying their graduation date was moved to Oct 5th.

I don't think it is 820, we would have heard something. We would have gotten a letter. No news is good news.
