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 07/03/2014! 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"

Has everyone received their form letter? I got the box three days after my husband got to BC and I got my first call on Saturday (two weeks after he arrived) I also got a letter about getting my military dependent ID on Saturday. I thought maybe the form letter was just late getting here but the mail just came and still no letter! Anyone else having this issue?

Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend and Memorial Day. It was our last weekend with our daughter before she heads to CA. We had a great time honoring our fallen hero's and spending time with our family. We also had two extra Sailors with us for the weekend from VA Beach and it was awesome to have them here. We all went to Atlanta yesterday to see the Braves vs Red Sox game, whoooo hooo GO Red Sox!!! There were lots of sailors, soldiers, marines and other military members and veterans there. We salute them and also thank them for their service to our country :)

therevbev: If remaining at RTC for a couple of days, it is RTC curfew. The ones who have later curfew are those who will move over to GL A School shortly after PIR. Curfew on RTC should be 8 or 9 pm, most likely.

Looking for the mother of a recruit that was in DIV 214 but had to leave for medical reasons at the end of last week. His initials are AS. He was set to go to Nuke school after BC with my son. My son would like to stay in contact with him.

Question: if back in p-housing waiting to go to A school for longer than a day (Ft Lee), would it be PIR curfew or station curfew? or no way to know?

Katwell: So glad you will have the extra day of Liberty with your new sailor! I hope all of the others don't fly out until after the 4th also. I think that will probably be the case, but never say never in the Navy! :-)
