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 06/06/2014! PLEASE See the PAGES section for Informational Posts about BC and PIR. PAGES is underneath the Members Photos. PLEASE scroll down this page here to find the Comment Box to post a reply to the PIR GROUP.
~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.
~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.
~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.
~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:
• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:
• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.
Some Suggestions:
~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.
~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option
~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends"

I haven't heard from my SR for two weeks other than a letter last week :(
He's in 196 so I was thinking I would get "the call" today. Am I wrong?

Lala Ribbon, cool picture!
bunchesOmom, I hope you get your SR's call today as I know how it feels to be anxious and nervous on what is happening with them.
CatMom509, I'll for sure be hanging around Navy for Moms for quite awhile, as it brings so much useful info and we get to chat, and it's always inspiring.

Good morning,
Lala Ribbon Queen, I missed out on getting 6/6 PIR ribbons for me & my son.
Matt's.mom, oh yes, I'm super excited!! Couple more days. I keep reminding my coworkers of how many more days, so they're excited with me as well :)
My son from Div 189 is supposed to call today, to let me know his flight schedule of when he'll be leaving for A-school after graduation, as I'm planning to sit with him at the airport till he boards. I want to squeeze in every last seconds to hang out with him.

I made it to CA Sunday night My first flight was amazing, I loved every minute of it and stared out the window almost the whole entire time. It was so so cool. Here are a couple things I wrote in my journal lol.... I've seen it in pictures but it's just not the same as looking at earth from the view of a plane..... There are circles and squares and lumpy terrain but I haven't a clue and there's no one to explain.....471 miles per hour feels like turtle speed. What -48 degrees? It's cool that you can follow the path of the flight and see so much info. I wish it would tell you what is below like the mountain ranges, deserts etc :) Here is one of the pics I took..... Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high.....
