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."

Mine is in 340 too. His name is Josh and he entered on a PACT agreement. Hope you get a call soon. maybe they did good today and can make calls tomorrow.

My son is Nick. His letter said to expect a call Saturday which I thought meant today. What's a PACT agreement?

He is going in without a rating. The one he wanted wasn't available and he really didn't know what he wants to do. Under a PACT agreement he will get shipped out to a vessel just after graduation and do an 18 month apprenticeship. He will get to experience various duties on a ship and at the end of 18 months go to A school for whatever job is most suitable for him.

Did anyone from Division 340 get a call yesterday from their son/daughter?

Happy Sunday, fellow Navy Moms! Hope that our SRs will make some phone calls today. I don't want to get greedy because I already got two phone calls from him last week. But it would be nice to get a call that's not about security clearance.From his first personal letter to us, he mentioned that all the SRs in their division get along fine and that he is doing okay. He is requesting for letters and pictures. They can only write letters on Sundays but they can receive mails everyday. He wanted me to share his address to his close friends which I did. 39 days before PIR!

Just got my first call from Jack in div 339! So good to hear his voice but we all were playing hot potato with the phone and it ended so QUICK.

Just got off the phone with Josh. He started tearing up a bit but is doing okay. I knew this would be hard for him being away for the first time. I wanted to give him a big hug so bad. He passed his swimming and pt tests so that is good. I'm sure once he starts getting letters he will feel less lonely. I will be sending one every day till he graduates. Hope you all get your phone calls
