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 04 (USS Arleigh Burke) Divisions 807
Welcome to the Division Discussion for Division 807
Be very aware when posting about your SRs who are in this division. Make sure you read the OPSEC rules (everyone should).
sjtina, cor and a couple more ladies will be joining this discussion to answer your questions about the "800" division.
Although your SR is still in BC, what they are doing may be slightly different from what the other divisions in this training group are doing. It is also recommended that you go into your "settings" (clickable link on the right side) and change your privacy setting to "private" and change everything to friends only.
Please still use the main wall to post general questions, and concerns, such as meet and greet questions etc. Specific questions regarding the 800 division should be posted here.
We “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like to, and the ladies helping out with the 800 divisions don't always get to the main wall as often as they 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 ladies!!!

Thank you! I'm just wondering what he'll be doing in RCU. Sitting around or ? He'll be so bored if so. I hope he can still be doing something even if not on his foot.

Robs mom, stress fractures are very common so he will have plenty of company. He will eventually be put on LLD (Limited Light Duty) where he will be given various jobs. Its not much fun especially for these 800 guys who passionate about their training and goals. Hopefully he heals quickly and gets back to where he wants to be. He will make new friends and possibly meet up with old friends later on. Hang in there, I know it is hard on you as well.

Robsproudmom: So sorry this happened: I feel bad for him AND you/family. We all realize this can happen to any of our kids while in boot camp or in later training, etc. They are working so hard everyday, without much rest, and always trying to improve their fitness.
Hang in there Mom. May your son heal completely, be good as new and stronger than ever. May the wait for his PIR fly by. Pls keep us posted on how you are both doing. You will both be in my prayers. -

Thank you and I will. I know he misses the friends he'd made. God has a plan!

YIPPEE ! So happy for your call. I've had 2 and it's better than 0 - I'll take what I can get. Keeping the SR's and their Families in my prayers. Praying that the weather up there changes for the better too. I'm used to the cold, but we are driving so don't want to have issues. Praying for no canceled flights too. I just hope I don't cry thru the whole graduation ceremony. :) See you next Thursday!
