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 06/22/2012

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 Skyla (SHIP 07 DIV 191) on April 28, 2012 at 11:34pm: I'm not sure when my husband's PIR is yet but if he's there for 8 weeks this should be the right date...getting ahead of myself but a little too ancy waiting to find anyone else who left the same day (Apr. 24th) just incase this is the right one! :)

Comment by mumof4 (ship 02, div 932) on April 28, 2012 at 10:43pm: Not sure if this will be our son's PIR date or not, but he is division 932 which appears to be next on the list. Waiting for the official letter!

Comment by Julie (ship 3 division 188) on April 28, 2012 at 10:14pm: I know me too. I am excited to meet new people who are in the same area as me

Comment by JMT1366 (Ship 3 - Div 188) on April 28, 2012 at 10:12pm: Hi Julie...I'm so excited....I'll hopefully going to meet you and your husband soon!! Go NAVY!!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on April 28, 2012 at 7:20pm: Please go ahead and start your Division Discussions. Here is how:

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 Julie (ship 3 division 188) on April 28, 2012 at 7:03pm: Lisasophia- Once I know all the divisions I can set up division sub groups.
Locke.dm- more than likely your SR will have the PIR 6/22.

Comment by marcyl(Ship11Div197) on April 28, 2012 at 6:59pm: Well I'm not totally sure if our PIR is 6/22 but it's looking that way, so I thought I'd join. A big Howdie to all you moms!!

Comment by LisaSophia on April 28, 2012 at 6:35pm: Julie - will you also be setting up the Division sub-group?

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on April 28, 2012 at 6:34pm: Hi ladies, I'm another "veteran" stopping by on here to help out too. I'm Betsy and my youngest son is one of our family's sailors. He is a CTT and stationed in Washington state on the aircraft carrier, USS CVN 74, John C. Stennis. I also have a future son in law, who is an ET stationed in Pearl Harbor, on the USS Key West submarine (My daughter is living there in HI also).

Welcome to our crazy Navy life. It's fun, confusing, happy and sometimes sad all at the same time. Fire away with all your questions and we will do our best to answer them.

Comment by LisaSophia on April 28, 2012 at 6:33pm: Gooodness!!! It's great to finally have a PIR date!! Just opened his letter and next stop was to join you all here!! One step closer!!
