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."

Event Description
This is a chance for everyone to put a face to the name.
The Ramada does the M&G regardless, they are not connected with the Navy, they do it as a service so date can not be changed. We can request a table or ask to move it to another room...the bar gets dark and loud after a while. Also, some PIR groups go to the Ramada then plan to meet elsewhere for dinner…Anastasias, Flannigans. We may want to bring drinks to save on cost.
There will be many there who have never heard of N4M's. Looking forward to finally meeting parents and friends of PIR 02/18/11. Please rsvp so that we all know who will be coming. Thanks!
