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 12 (USS Triton) Divisions 321 & 322 (brother divisions)
Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 321 & 322. These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.

Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine

We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

Hi Sandi! Im from Texas - where are you located? Only two letters so far, and we missed his phone call Friday night. He did catch his dad, and he said he sounds good. I guess no news is good news. How is your SR? Is the division doing well? My SR didnt say. Are you ready for PIR?

Hi Tifney I'm from CT . We only got two letters so far too. Hopefully we get one today or tomorrow. I think we are safe to say our sons our soon to be sailors. Can't believe it!!!!! My son seems to really like it. The division is doing much better now. They had their problems for the most part but have finally come together. They say it's normal. I am looking forward to PIR like you have no idea. Where will your son be going to school? My son is staying in GL . From what I hear it is soooo cold there.I hope he's ready for that.Glad to see you here on N4M. It is great to talk to others about our kids.Keep in touch.

Hello all, New to Ship 12 division 321 but not new to BC. My son had a little mishap and is now with the brotherhood of this ship. I pray that he will make many friends in this division. He is a great kid as many are at RTC. If you have a chance in your next letter to your SR PLEASE mention the new big kid from just around the block, he is a super guy, be your buddy, and he has your back and will defend and help you to the end, I would greatly appreciate it!
We taught our SR to work hard, help others, and always respect your superiors. Thanks! Godspeed!
