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 023 & 024 (Brother Divisions)
Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 023 & 024
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!

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!!!

It is a fun little questionaire to print off and send your SR. It has a lot of good questions, but some humor too. I am hoping my daughter will fill it out and send it back.

I have had absolutely nothing from her yet. I got the box and the form letter, then NOTHING. I am hoping that they got to write Sunday and we will have letters today.

I haven't gotten anything and unfortunately I got my hopes up for today even though I know I should't have :/. At least now I have something to look forward to tomorrow! Did anyone else get a letter today?

we havent received any mail other than the form letter, and that took forever to get ( or at least it seemed that way). We are hoping to get some mail soon. He's in division 24 and is going to A school in Pensacola to be an Aviation Structural Mechanic. My husband was in the Navy when we got married and we had to communicate via snail mail, and sometimes it was a month or more befor I would get mail, and the phone calls usually came in the middle of the night. He would have been in line for a long time, so he wouldn't get to talk very long. Now there are cell phones, texting, facebook, skype. How much different this expereice will be , :-)
