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 taylor'smom(ship03/div189) on May 10, 2012 at 3:12pm: thanks julie, i am hoping "maybe" tomorrow for a letter, we live in Nebraska so it shouldn't take that long.

just devastating not to get a letter today(thursday). Hoping for tomorrow,

and like everyone says: NO News is Good News, that is my new motto!!!!!!

Comment by ellen0502 on May 10, 2012 at 3:10pm: taylor'smom. Don't worry about not getting a letter it may just be delayed in the mail or your daughter may have had watch or something else she had to do when they were given the time to write.

It does happen off and on where someone may not get a letter, a SR just doesn't write, or your SR writes a letter to someone else.

They are not given much time to write during the first couple of weeks (my son had 15 minutes on Sunday the first three weeks), so sometimes they have to choose who to write to. Just don't stop writing to her!!!

Comment by taylor'smom(ship03/div189) on May 10, 2012 at 2:48pm: juliebelle28, Curious you said that some might not get letters? why is that?

i didn't get a letter today from my daughter and am feeling very sad.

thanks, michelle

Comment by mom2five on May 10, 2012 at 1:52pm: jmt1366, I bought a sailor bracelet before he left. I found it by accident,but decided it was pretty cool. I put it on the day he left, and it is still on. Every time I look at it or feel it, I say a little prayer for him. It is a thick white cotton endless woven loop. When it gets wet for the first time, it shrinks to fit your wrist. After that the only way to get it off is to cut it :-o

And YAY Julie!!!! I will be stalking the mailbox again today.
