History and Tradition
Spend pick-up day, more notoriously known as "Black Friday," with these recruits and their drill instructors. This is the first afternoon when recruits spend quality time with their drill instructors.
There are many variances of how "Red Friday" got started in the United States. While I can't state whether or not those accounts are accurate, I can share how we adopted the phrase as an organization to promote wearing red on Fridays.
Is OPSEC important in boot camp? What's critical is that you are aware of what OPSEC is. You can protect your loved ones by protecting the information that you know. This is known in the military as "Operations Security" or OPSEC.
