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 02 Division 918 PIR 3-11-16
Hello to all us new Navy Moms!
Figured I didn't want to wait any longer for someone to start this discussion group!
So my daughter left January 12th for RTC. I am excited to have gotten my form letter and learn the PIR date. Our loved ones are in "Triple Threat" Division. :-)
How many are planning on attending PIR?

Navygfmom, The Page, 800 and 900 Divisions, within Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) will be of interest to you since you have a recruit in a performing division. (The address is in there.) I believe that Division 918 is Triple Threat.
I left info on your My Page.

I spoke with my daughter tonight for about three minutes. Although it was short, I'm over the moon about it.

So grateful, I received a 14 minute phone call from my guy. Just what I needed as this weekend has been the most difficult since he left. It's been nice tough, but he's doing good.
