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 lynnvikings on April 13, 2012 at 4:23pm: tysonsmom, one other tid bit. you can give your sailors their cell phones and laptops to them at the airport. They can't take them back to RTC after graduation

Comment by Queenjailyle on April 13, 2012 at 3:47pm: TysonsMom-I'm not sure which picture it is. I only know that in the comments somone recognized their child from div 163. Sorry I can't be more help.

Comment by TysMom, Ship 07, DIV 163 on April 13, 2012 at 3:05pm: Queenjailyle:Ship 09 Div 166 , which one is div 163? How can you tell?

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on April 13, 2012 at 2:17pm: Division Discussions:

You may start your Division Discussions up above in the Discussion Forum.

How to add a Discussion - Go to the bottom left corner of the Discussion Forum area (It's actually just above the comment box here.) and click "Add a Discussion".

Fill in the Title and any description you like.

For DIV discussion Titles a suggestion would be:

SHIP ##/ DIV ###

Simple as that! Then the other members from your div can reply and you can connect up even closer there.

Please, only one discussion per Division, Thanks!

Remember that you are ALL part of this TG though and to stay on the main pages to talk here too! Plus, we veteran moms mostly stay on the main pages of the groups. There are 7-8 PIR groups running at one time and so we do not get to the DF's as much. We do check them as often as we can...OPSEC rules apply there also.

Comment by Queenjailyle on April 13, 2012 at 2:03pm: And thank you FTLW for the much needed reminder.

Comment by Queenjailyle on April 13, 2012 at 2:02pm: I was just looking at the FB page for RTC and in the random pictures for April 11 there is one of div. 163. I know some of you have children in that div.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on April 13, 2012 at 2:00pm: To change your username on here.

Just go to "Settings" which is in the list in the far right hand column of this page...under where you sign out of N4M's.

Your profile page will open.

Under "Profile" Username is the third item down.

Clear the info and type in your new username.

Once you do that make sure to click "save" at the bottom right of the page.

Comment by SAMcJmom on April 13, 2012 at 12:21pm: Ladies, in searching this site, I discovered that there is a facebook page for Navy Recruit Training Command. Here is the link: http://facebook.com/NavyRecruitTrainingCommand
They post random pictures from bootcamp. It is fun to see what they are doing. Saw a young man who looks like my son. Tough to really tell though. Fun to speculate.

Comment by TysMom, Ship 07, DIV 163 on April 13, 2012 at 11:25am: LindenEmry (Ship 7 Div 163), Tyson is also my oldest child...while not the first to be in the military, he is the first sailor! Yay, for our sailor sons!!
