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."

My Sr is also in 131 and I was surprised with a call on Friday. It worried me when I heard from him, I was afraid something was wrong. Everything was fine. He said that they were up early for PT and it was rigorous so not sure why he was awarded a call.

Looking forward to meeting everyone as well! My SR is also in DIV 131. Planning to go to Sarge's meet and greet as well. Also got a call last Friday was super happy to talk to him! Has anyone heard about the division getting the flag for scholastics? I seen a post on FB group, but did not hear that from my SR.

MartiB and Rocnrobin where are you both from? I have not received a phone call now in 2 weeks. I did receive a letter a few days ago though and it seems that my SR did not get to call on Friday the 1st because he was on duty. He said that he may not get to call until he is officially a "Sailor". Would've rather had a phone call, but the letter was wonderful! He also said that their "hell week" was starting on the 4th. Hopefully they all made it through the week successfully!

I am from a tiny town in central TX (Moody, TX). My daughter is telling me the same things you are hearing. I have not had a phone call in a while but did get a letter on Thursday and that is when she told me when battle stations was. They have done well on inspections before and it sounds like most of the division works well together. I think they will do just fine. I will be at Sarge's on the 28th, will you be there? Where are you from?

I'm also from a small town in Texas(Lexington) My son has been telling me the same in his letters. The letters are nice, but I sure miss hearing his voice. It sounds like the Div are doing well. Hope you get to hear from her soon. My sons letters are short, but he has alot of sisters, he has to write to. Take Care
