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 mumof4 (ship 02, div 932) on June 19, 2012 at 3:49pm: Awesome job 193.....now we wait for 194 and 932 to report in! Come on Sailors!!!!! We want our calls!!!!!

Comment by Cathy...Corpmen Roxy's Mom on June 19, 2012 at 3:23pm: Talking to my Sailor from Division 193, everyone passed! She received a Bravo Zulu from Chief!!! Congratulations everyone...See you Friday!

Comment by Tina ( Walt's mom) on June 19, 2012 at 3:00pm: Div 193 passes Battle Stations !

Comment by diannep on June 19, 2012 at 1:32pm: Congrats, Livia! That is wonderful. I would imagine that your sister will be able to sit with you for the ceremony.

teresac: Click on the Meet And Greet info up top, below the rectangle.

Comment by mumof4 (ship 02, div 932) on June 19, 2012 at 1:29pm: Livia - congratulations! That is awesome on the award. I would ask RTC that question - you can FB them or even call them!

Comment by mumof4 (ship 02, div 932) on June 19, 2012 at 1:28pm: teresac - plan on humidity! :( I'm headed to Sarge's on Thursday night - I talked to him on the phone this morning about something else, and he said that there would be plenty of food and he gave a short presentation at 7:00 with information for us. Safe travels.....when you hear, let us know! I need to go grocery shopping after work and am afraid to go. My SR (hopefully Sailor by now) doesn't have my cell number on the list of numbers, and we have no cell service at home, so have to use the land line! I think I'll go home and sit by the phone until it rings! :)

Comment by Livia on June 19, 2012 at 12:42pm: My Sailor will be receiving an award in Friday, and so those of us on his list will all sit together in that one section for the guests of award winners. But I'm wondering if his sister, who is active duty, but not on the list will also be able to sit with us. Does anyone know the answer to this?

Comment by Teresa(Ryan's mom) on June 19, 2012 at 12:17pm: I've got my phone ready ! I keep grabbing it and refreshing the screen to see if somehow it rang and I missed it!? I think I'm losing my mind. I leave for Chicago Thursday morning. Is there a meet and greet planned? I checked the weather online and looks like 80's to 90's. I've never been to Chicago, is it super humid like NY? I'm from California where there is no humidity.

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on June 19, 2012 at 11:41am: navymom284, congrats on your soon to be son in law and all the special things going on in your family.

Those calls should be coming for some of you pretty soon. Woohoo!

Comment by diannep on June 19, 2012 at 11:09am: RACW: I don't think the smallest American flags for the children would be a problem at PIR. I would bring them and ask the sailors at the entrance to the PIR Hall about them. Or, as mumof4 suggested, you can ask on RTC FB. Never have been asked that question before??? But we are asked about the signs all of the time and they are never allowed.
