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 candy (ship 07/div 163) on April 9, 2012 at 5:36pm: lol. I know exactly how you feel, but my youngest knows I'm nuts (at least that's what he tells me) lol. I was so excited to get the letter. To have an actual date to look forward to makes it so much better.

Comment by Recruit Man - Ronny on April 9, 2012 at 5:36pm: Hi All....Just wanted you all to know about Calls for Recruits.org. They give away FREE Pre-Paid Calling Cards for Recruits at Boot Camp. Make sure you go there and request some FREE phone cards....

My son has PIR on Friday...I'm so excited...I hope it goes well for all of your future Sailors and if you ever need any advice, support, or anything, just email me or go to my site, calls for recruits.org and ask away. Hope you all have a great day and wish your SR's the best of Luck!!!

Comment by Queenjailyle on April 9, 2012 at 5:34pm: Hey candyp88. I can't wait until PIR. It was so weird getting both box and letter in the same day. Went from getting ready to cry to dancing around the house. Pretty sure my kids think I'm crazy, if they didn't already.

Comment by candy (ship 07/div 163) on April 9, 2012 at 5:30pm: Hi =) I just got my letter this morning. Haven't gotten my box yet. My son is in Ship 07 Div 163
