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.

I appreciate you all so very much ♥ God Bless you, and God Bless America.

Comment by momofanuke on May 28, 2012 at 9:59pm: txbabydocmom...it upsets me that you will not be joining us for PIR and that your son has been in the waiting game so long. I know that he is ready to start over and move on and I pray that there is some way that they will see the facts and realize that this young man doesn't have a medical reason to be discharged. I know this time has been hard on you and even harder on your brave son. Keep us posted please...or better yet email me and keep me informed (tomorrowstreasures@centurylink.net) I will be praying for you both.

Comment by SAMcJmom on May 28, 2012 at 9:47pm: ANNEERN4, very cool! We are heading out Thursday morning. Probably sightseeing on Saturday. We are going to Sarge's as well.

Comment by Shawn's mom2 ship07 DIV170 on May 28, 2012 at 10:11am: Hey Brandi, my son is in 170!! Thanks for the info, he is one that doesn't share much lol so I love hearing from you guys!! Praying for this week and Battle Stations, he still has to go through that but so happy to hear how all of you have gotten "the call"...

Comment by Brandi (Trey's Mom) on May 28, 2012 at 9:23am: Good morning my fair ladies!     Happy Monday Memorial day!

When I talked to Trey yesterday (while he was in recruit heaven) I asked about Captain's Cup. He said that they all had a great time.   Their brother division 170 won the "special olympic flag", but they put up a great rivalry fight for it and came in second.   We know all about rivalry in TX!!!    I think this division 169 has come a long way of working together as a team.     I'm so proud of all of them and don't even know them.

By the way......I was awake at midnight last night and found a great movie on INSP about Calvin Graham (starring Ricky Schroder).   He was the youngest Sailor in history (at least whom was found out) and joined the Navy at age 12.
