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 04/27/2012

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance. Please take the timeto read the OPSEC and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names of Recruits/Sailors are not 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 remember someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.

Comment by Craig on March 6, 2012 at 9:56pm: blm - Here is a picture of the gal hair styles. You actually look in a book and get to chose the style from the book. Did I mention there is only one picture in the book?

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on March 6, 2012 at 9:02pm: That was a crazy party Craig, just remember I was the one with the camera and I have video I can always post on you tube so you better be nice hahahahhahaha

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on March 6, 2012 at 8:16pm: You are welcome...RTC will update their website sometime next week with the details for this TG. At which point I will update the name of this group ;-)

Comment by blm on March 6, 2012 at 8:06pm: Thanks FTLW-I was waiting for form letter but was hoping for this info. This has been my roughest day since the day she left-one day a time!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on March 6, 2012 at 3:23pm: It's a good thing I wasn't drinking my expensive cup of coffee yet!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on March 6, 2012 at 3:20pm: CRAIG!!! You big jerk! (Not really!)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....I'll be laughing all day now! He would make me the one who can't handle her liquor Dianne!
Well, he's "full" of SOMETHING Dianne...but I don't know if its info!

Comment by diannep on March 6, 2012 at 2:48pm: Conny: Your SR will put the names on the list (form letter). About a week or two before PIR, they can update this list. Are you talking about another 11 yr old ("friend") coming along with yours? If so, same ID is necessary...and not necessary to have that name on the list since under 12 yrs old. What a treat PIR will be for these 11 yr olds!

And, hang in there...the beginning of bootcamp is hard for them...and for families missing them! It gets better...that first letter, phone call, and subsequent ones...help alot!

Comment by diannep on March 6, 2012 at 2:44pm: Ladies, Craig is our "seasoned" retired sailor...who is full of info...jokes....and much more! You will see him dropping in here to answer questions with the rest of us N4Moms veterans. So ask away...he not only is a retired sailor, but has family members in now. So he has lots of info!

Comment by diannep on March 6, 2012 at 2:42pm: Wow, Craig....what a handsome one you are! And me? Such a FOX! HAA! ...you are too funny...

Comment by Craig on March 6, 2012 at 12:32pm: FTLW - Since this group is just new, and not so many people yet, I thought I'd post and say that was a great party last night. Here is a picture of you, diannep, and me. btw: your slip is showing... (click on the picture)
