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 (USS John F. Kennedy) Divisions 355-356 (Brother Divisions)
Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 355-356.
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!!!

Yeah, me too. That's the only reason I can think of for not getting a call. :(

Even if someone did get into trouble, I dont think they would stop the entire division from making their "I'm A Sailor" call, They may just shorten the time as others are getting 30 minute calls.

Calls are when they come in. I figure today with the way the other divisions already went thru. They go in order I beleive is what I heard. So it should be today in about half an hour or so. GOOD LUCK 355/356.
