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."

Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 351-352.

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.

Get to know each other, your SRs are!

Please still use the main wall to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like.

Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine
Every single member is important to us
We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.

Hang in there!!!

HI taylordays, yes I am on the facebook group. I don't post a lot but I read it through out the day and I love it!

Hi I'm Jill from Florida, my son is in 352 and we are also going to PIR, still waiting for a letter fom him, hoping for a phone call this weekend! I think we are going to stay at the Hampton inn in libertyville.

Hi Jill, I am also from Florida and my daughter is in 352.   I know, I hope we get a call too, We talked to her the first week, and then she called her best friend the next call so I am hoping we get a call this weekend:)  I know we have been very lucky to already get two calls.

 I am not sure if we have talked before,lol.  Since there are several sites it is hard to keep up with since we have different names on the different ones.  

I get confused on who I am talking with too lol. Let's hope we both get calls today!!

Hi Shirley my daughter is in Div 351 also...We are from Ohio and my son is stationed in Norfolk, on deployment at the moment. Welcome Aboard :)

 

Keep your phones handy, they are getting calls just had a wonderful 15 minute call from him!!

Yay, Me too:)  Wasn't expecting it and was out shopping, Was in the store her sister works so we lucked out and both got to talk!!  Jillb I know we will sleep better tonight.

I slept so good, had a smile on my face all night, how about you?

Has anybody heard from the SR?? I haven't heard from my daughter in a week :(

No phone calls this week, but I did get a letter today:)  Hopefully you will get a letter soon too. My daughter sounded upbeat though and said they earned a flag for academics, that seemed to make her happy:) 

Hi my Name is Linda and I have a daughter in 352.  We are going to Nov PIR. Haven't made hotel reservations yet.  Would like to get there early enough to go to Meet and Greet.  I'm from Texas.  I don't do facebook or twitter.

Hi Linda my daughter is also in 352:)  We are booked at the Navy lodge.  We are going to Sarges Meet and Greet at the Sundance saloon on Thurs night, they say he has a lot of information and advice to give along with meeting other families.  There is also a facebook page called 11-2-12 where there is a lot of activity,if you want to try FB.   If not this is a great site, just not quite as busy.  My daughter has given me some names that she is friends with and I haven't found any of them yet, If you want to send me a e-mail top right hand of this page I would love to know if our girls are maybe friends, but in her letter it sounds like there are about 80 girls, but you never know:)  Please keep in touch:)  Laurie from Florida
