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 onatalie64 on June 12, 2012 at 12:01am: My son is an EM, A school in SC. Im looking for others, I have joined a few groups but there is not much activity. Does anybody know of a good group? Thank you:)

Comment by Riverlady ship 13 div 181 on June 11, 2012 at 9:29pm: My son is at GL for A, he said he has about a week before he starts the next phase...I am guessing that is OS. He was trained in standing watch but now has some down time.

Comment by cathie379 on June 11, 2012 at 9:27pm: Is there any mom's with sailors that are at Gl For A school? My sailor is on hold for OS school?

Comment by Riverlady ship 13 div 181 on June 11, 2012 at 6:42pm: Congrats txbabydocmom! I'm sure your SR is so relieved.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on June 11, 2012 at 5:36pm: txbabydocmom - WOO-HOO! Victory! That is friggin' fantastic'! Especially since you are so correct! It rarely happens...I have only personally seen one other in the year I have been on here (I know there has to be some more....but that is my personal experience.) Lots of Happy Dancers!

...and my favorite...

See you on your new PIR group! Congrats to your son for stickin' it out!

Comment by jansu831 on June 11, 2012 at 4:27pm: txbabydocmom that is the best news ever! Let us know when his PIR date is so we can look for you in that discussion group. Hooray!!!

Comment by momofanuke on June 11, 2012 at 4:25pm: txbabydocmom...AWESOME!!!!!! I am soooo excited for him (and you) I know that it took a long time for this to happen and we are sad that you were not able to be with us on 6/1....but it is WoNdErFuL.....that his appeal was granted...still praying for y'all and hoping that the rest of his training goes smoothly. {Hugs} to you both!

Comment by cindyship11div168 on June 11, 2012 at 2:14pm: LMBO for the stories! Guess if he wants dry boots he will have to figure something out. His only thought was to get out the brand new IRON that he had bought for his uniforms and "somehow" use it. His question for me about the iron was "Mom, should the iron smell funny when I turn it on"? Yes, if you have never used it before! Thanks for the giggles!
