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."

Welcome to PIR 01/27/2012!

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the time to read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are never allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but discouraged as their RDC's read this site and can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.CLICK ME

Comment by diannep on January 3, 2012 at 11:07am: Ok...where oh where is everyone from this group? Hope all are doing well! And hoping that just maybe, some letters are being mailed today from RTC!

Good morning!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on January 2, 2012 at 10:49am: Good Morning everyone, remember no mail today :-( so that means letter this week will most likely be delayed by one day. But hopefully you are off today and it will be a short week for you :-)

Comment by diannep on January 2, 2012 at 9:06am: Good Morning, everyone. Hoping for a good day for all! Do you have your GL travel arrangements made? Remember, Southwest into either Chicago-Midway or Milwaukee (has less traffic, easy drive--many times cheaper than flying into Chicago) means no "change fee" if you have to change reservations and 2 bags ship for free. Go ahead and book your hotels early as some book up early (especially one like Residence that have the larger suites). They usually have very liberal cancellation policies so no harm in booking early.
