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."

Does ANYONE Have a SR in Ship 12 who left for basic on 12-10-12?
My boyfriend is in ship 12 and his recruiter gave me a wacked up address. We got his box already just waiting for his graduation info packet thingy with his correct address. I believe he is div either 090 or 091 but i'm not taking chances and sending letters until i know for SURE.

Those divisions have PIR on 02/08/2013, so join the group, PIR 02/08/2013, to to connect with others with loved ones training with your SR. Yes, it is a good idea to wait on the form letter before mailiing letters.
You may also want to join, or at least check out, Boot Camp Moms (we accept all loved ones), PIR Reference Information, and New Members Stop Here. There will be a lot of great information and support for you in those groups as well as in the PIR group. Be sure to check out the Pages (found under the pictures of the Members) and Discussions within the groups.

I found out Monday his div is 090 and PIR is 08FEB13 :D

Great! Divisions 089 and 090 are brother divisions and train together and will have Battle Stations-21 together, so look for others with loved ones in either division. There will later be a discussion within the PIR 02/08/2013 group for the two divisions.

My daughter is in ship 12 division 089 also it must be a large group we just received her letter and she is only allowed three guests. The address I received from the recruiter also was not completely correct but I've talked to other moms and they said they will still get their mail.

melanie l., Sometime between now and the end of BC you should join Cryptology ~ CTI ~ CTM ~ CTN ~ CTR ~ CTT ~. Which one will her rating (job or specialty) be? CTI has "A" School in Monterey, CA at the Defense Language Institute and CTM, CTN, CTR, and CTT have "A" School in Corry Station, FL (near Pensacola) at the Center for Information Dominance (CID). There are other groups you may want to join as well.

It doesn't have the Div. #on the return address part of the envelope his graduation papers came in?

He may have just been in a hurry and left it off. As long as you have the Division number, there is no problem. You must include the division number when writing to him.
Join the group, PIR 02/08/2013 TG 13 - 14 Divisions (089-100, 806 and 913), if his division is included in that TG. Also, you may want to join, or at least check out, Boot Camp Moms, PIR Reference Information, and New Members Stop Here. There will be a lot of great information and support for you in those groups as well as in the PIR group. Be sure to check out the Pages (found under the pictures of the Members) and Discussions within the groups.
