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."

You need to be a member of PIR 05/26/11 TG 28 — 7 Divisions (179–184 & 928) to add comments!

Comment by joankf Ship11 Div 181 on April 11, 2011 at 12:00am: OMGhemadeit, be thankful that you have your SR's address and division. My daughter arrived just 24 hours after your son and we still do not have any information on her division or address. At this point I am still guessing she is in this PIR. Why others who arrived after my daughter already have their SR's division, address and PIR is a mystery to me.

Comment by lnovell011/180 on April 10, 2011 at 11:23pm: I was hoping for the earlier weekend too so it wouldn't be over the holiday weekend. I am excited to get our first real letters!

Comment by OMG hes a Sailor (div180) on April 10, 2011 at 10:56pm: wow I had to go back 9 pages to get where I left off yesterday! I pray our boys got to write letters today! I find if funny that some of the SRs got to GL like 4 and 5 days after my SR and they graduate the same day. Looks like mine just missed the cutoff for 5/20. He did not get to GL untill like 11 on the 29th. But that is fine for us..but I do need to check on when my daughter has final exams??? Guess I should to that in the morning! Good night all!

Comment by joankf Ship11 Div 181 on April 10, 2011 at 9:03pm: Thank you JessicaB and Dianep! What I meant about pacing myself is finishing my taxes and 2 college course reading assignments, you know, my responsibilities, instead of spending most of my time on this site! LOL I love that when I can sneak away to N4M's I can find out so much! Pray tomorrow we get the form letter. Flights will get booked soon thereafter! TY!

Comment by diannep on April 10, 2011 at 6:12pm: joan: You most likely will find it much cheaper to book nonrefundable tickets and pay the change fee if needed. Or fly Southwest...you can fly to Chicago or Milwaukee with them. They charge no change fee and I believe the first 2 pieces of luggage are free also.

Comment by diannep on April 10, 2011 at 6:11pm: joan: There is no pacing with us here on this site! HA! We go full out! My sailor son watched me go on N4Ms alot when he was home on leave and told me I was nuts. Well, too bad! MEN....they never understand us WOMEN! :-)
