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 05/25/2012

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 kellyc on April 18, 2012 at 8:10pm: Got my call this afternoon. Ship 12 Div 158. My daughter said that she loves her division, that they,all work well and supprt each other. They received their honors flag.. She is on light duty for 5 days because of her ankle after that they will evaluate it.. She cried because if its not better they will set her back six weeks for medical, and she doesn't want to leave her division. Praying her ankle just needs rest!!!!
