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."

@Andysproudmom - my son's PIR was this past October. We stayed at the Navy Lodge - just a few blocks from the base. This particular Lodge is unique- you do not have to have your sailor make the reservation OR check in with you. The rooms were about $65/night - clean and neat, not too extravagant. You can google Navy Lodge and get all the location information and then call direct to make your reservation. Best wishes to you and your SR!

katlanta - Any place is fine with us! :)

The best is look it up goggle the closet hotel/motel from RTC. Katlanta was correct its better to stay closed on base.

Welcome, Andysproudmom. Great to have you. I can't help with the place to stay, but as katlanta said, do look for the page set up for your PIR group. You can look for the PIR date, but it also lists the divisions that will be graduating. Good luck.
Ladies, Please add our son to your prayer lists. He leaves on Tues for overseas for 3 years.
Also, because of a last minute 25th wedding reception for my sister, we will not be able to make the meet and greet on the 21st. Looking forward to the next one. Hugs and Prayers, Susan

Hi Georgia Mom's My son is at BC now in ship 12 div 271 with PIR of 08/31/12 anyone else have family in this div. Would love to hear from you. Also any suggestions of where to stay or any other info you think I might need let me know.

Okay for us just let us know for sure where.:-) Inside Marietta square would be great.

katlanta- I'm good with any. Marietta pizza does have a separate dining room other than the one right on the corner. It's still connected to MPC but a couple of doors down on Church street side. Might could turn that into a more private dining room if we asked about using that.

MSmom...We live about an hour south of Atlanta. Sorry. Good luck with your move. Praying for a safe trip.
