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 06/01/2012

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 Sailors/Recruits 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 cindyship11div168 on June 1, 2012 at 11:15pm: WOW, ending to a great day! I know a few Sailors from Division 168 got the surprise of having their Sailors for extra days... our Sailor was one of those!. I hope other families also were blessed as well. If anyone would like a "stained glass" pendant for their Ship 11 Division 168 Sailor, send me a private message. I have a few left over. Can't wait to see his smiling face again tomorrow.
