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."

Hi Everyone!
I just found this group and am very excited to be a part of it. I have a daughter in this division. This is actually daughter number two going through bootcamp.
Anyone receive a call this last Sunday from their recruits? I did not. We have been lucky to get as many as we have so far.

Hello there RebeccaS. I too have a daughter in this Div. and another who went through basic last year in Cape May NJ. Kind of hard on us moms, huh. NO call from her this Sunday either. I think they must be busy busy busy. I just keep writing letters and reading the ones she has sent. Getting close to PIR. Are you going to be able to make it? Sure hope so.

I will be there also. I can't wait. I hope my daughter calls today. Last call we received, she was a total mess. What are your daughter's initials? Hopefully they talk. I know she's good friends with J.S., S.M., and J.E. My daughter's initials are I.R. Hope to meet you, ciav726 and Sonia at Meet and Greet.

Hello Bella's mom, I just bet your daughter is much better by now. They get stronger as each day goes by and more united as a group; as it should be. My daughter is L.T. and from all accounts is totally enjoying herself. She was so ready for this experience! See you at M&G is my intention. Keep smiling Navy mom.
