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 diannep on May 7, 2012 at 3:05pm: Go to the bottom of this page and click on "previous".

So sorry you missed your calls...normally, they won't call in the middle of the night like that...these are processing days so the schedule is a bit different--once they start training days (6 weeks long), they will call at more reasonable times!!!.

I turned off my cellphone at midnight--- when my son arrived at bootcamp back in 2009. I was sure he wouldn't be calling that late with the I'm a Sailor call. Well, he did. Got the message the next morning....sigh....

Comment by mom2five on May 7, 2012 at 2:58pm: Is there any way of going back and seeing all your previous posts? I don't find a your recent posts tab anywhere.

Comment by Julie (ship 3 division 188) on May 7, 2012 at 11:25am: Hello ladies... Hope yall have a good monday!! We are almost to the 3 week mark. You know what that means? We are almost to the half way point... Yay!!!

Comment by mumof4 (ship 02, div 932) on May 7, 2012 at 9:59am: diannep- made me nervous enough to take the picture of my boy off! :)

Comment by Tina ( Walt's mom) on May 7, 2012 at 9:37am: Just wanted to give everyone a heads up-- If you didn't book your room -- Do it ASAP. There is a large soccer tournament in the area that week! Took me forever to get a room- had to talk to sale manager and beg.

Comment by diannep on May 7, 2012 at 8:46am: Ladies, be careful with what kind of personal info you post on N4Moms. Especially if disclosing a name. "Others are reading" these posts and there could be some kickback to your SRs. Don't want anyone to be scared off...because most posts on here are fine. But just try not to get too personal and we always recommend that you don't expose first names of your SRs...they are allowed, but we don't recommend that. Last names are prohibited on the site.

Comment by mumof4 (ship 02, div 932) on May 6, 2012 at 10:30pm: Livia - what an awesome thing... Shiney boots, huh? Who knew? I wish my SR would be spit shining his boots if it means a phone call.... LOL Hoping for a letter or call this week - Thursday is my mail day, I think, since that's when the form letter came. There is so much I want to ask him about.....pictures, how he's doing, anything else that comes to mind.....and I can't ask. Blah!!!!! But....again Livia, congrats on the phone call.

Comment by Julie (ship 3 division 188) on May 6, 2012 at 10:04pm: Girl your not the only one. I cant wait for a letter or a phone call or smoke signal... Something anything would be nice.

Comment by Julie (ship 3 division 188) on May 6, 2012 at 9:42pm: Skyla I know how you feel.. I sometimes worry my husband will do the same but if you have faith in your marriage everything will be ok... I know how you feel about telling him everything. I am the same way with my husband. Dont feel nad especially if you dont really have anyone to talk to.
