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."

The following is excerpt from the Forum Discussion title "Groups: Listed by PIR Date.........." (clickable link)
Hello to all newcomers. If your Sailor Recruit arrived recently chances are the group for your PIR has not been formed yet. You should join the Boot Camp Moms group. We have a special group of ladies who will take you through the entire Boot Camp & PIR process. You should also watch the videos, look at the sample of the form letter you will be receiving (with your PIR date), review the powerpoint presentations - they are all listed as reference pages (located under member icons) in the New Members Stop Here group. Finally, keep in mind the Recruit Training Command has an official website. Most of your questions can be found within these three groups. If not, someone will be able to direct you to the right place/person to get the answer. Please take the time and effort to educate yourself.
If you have received you form letter, find your PIR date and join one of the established groups listed below. Keep this in a safe place (or scan and save on your hard disk).
Just click on the links below to go to the groups for the PIR dates (normally a Friday). Good luck and thank you to all Sailor Recruits and their families.
