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."

Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 231 and 232

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!

Please still use the Main Wall of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area as often as we 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!!!

Well if they earned that last week, then it gives it even more hope for you as the flag with the red is the academic flag. :)

I didn't know that! Did your sr tell you that on Saturday?
I don't remember seeing that. I hope so. That would be great!

And I thought mine was in one of the last photos. Has anyone else seen their SR?

I didn't see mine. I'm going to check again since I was at work. And my husband's looking too.

In one of the pictures around the middle of the group, we see someone in the back holding a division flag that looks like our SR. Navymom9829, are you talking about the one where the guy in the front is holding the red and white flag up? It's that picture. We all agree it looks like our SR but don't think it is because our guy should be wearing glasses and the guy we see isn't. He's too blind to find his way out of the building without them and I'm sure they aren't wearing contacts. So...I don't think it's him.

Thanks for this! 

Haven't gotten a letter since June 18th. Last phone call June 13th from my SR in 232. Is this a common experience amongst any of you? Going on "no news is good news".

We are 232 also and haven't had a phone call since June 13. We get letters weekly though and got one Thursday. He said he probably won't get another call until after Battle Stations.
Hi everyone....wow I cannot believe it took me this long to find this site...super excited to be here now.
Welcome! Is your SR 231 or 232? We've gotten pretty quiet around here. Guess it's because we're getting so close to PIR!
My son is 12/231, he is 20 and works in the laundry. We have received 3 phone calls and several letters too.
