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."

Comment by djrnova ship 07 Div 242 on June 13, 2011 at 1:54am: I just say the post not to use his name 1st or last so I will change it to mom of

SR ship 07 div 242 8) We got a call from him just to say he's doing good and he wanted to give us his address. Unfortunately I wasn't home but my husband talked to him 8)

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on June 12, 2011 at 11:31pm: I may be in the wrong place though. We received my boyfriends form letter and it didn't have an exact date to it for PIR. His recruiter said probably the 29th or the 5th of august. He stepped into basic june 6th. Anyone else?

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on June 12, 2011 at 11:12pm: Any ship 07 div 241's?

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on June 12, 2011 at 10:28pm: Navy Speak doesn't have a lot of them. If you ever want to know what something is and can't find out just ask on here, if we don't know the answer we will try to find out for you. :-)

Comment by BoosMom on June 12, 2011 at 10:21pm: At 10 am every Tuesday morning, the rtc will post a trivia question on facebook. The person who gets it correct will get a picture of their SR and their Division. The answer comes from the navy boot camp website. Can someone from ship2/div937 please answer the question the quickest this week? I sure would like to see BOO's picture!!!!

Comment by HM__Mom Ruth on June 12, 2011 at 10:05pm: Bree,

Try the "Navy Speak" utility on the right side of this page, but be prepared. Your son will come home talking in initials. That's what military people do.

Comment by bree on June 12, 2011 at 9:33pm: Found out yesterday my son (white sox game recruit) PIR 7/29. Received a box (addressed to his brother- because little brother is taking all his clothes) and a form letter with his personalization to dad & I.

I am having trouble with all the acronyms...everything sounds like e..i..e..i..o..!! Is there a secret decoder list somewhere?

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on June 12, 2011 at 8:49pm: my son (17 yrs old) saw me on this PIR groups page and saw the PIR date. he said y'all need a count down clock so I will know exactly how long it is until his 18th birthday, haha :-)

Comment by Soon2bNavyWife on June 12, 2011 at 2:37pm: My fiances PIR is 7/29 as well but I haven't received a letter from him yet.

Comment by diannep on June 12, 2011 at 12:11pm: NavyMom: You put it in the section UNDER the section that has your pretty water/mtn picture. Look at PIR 7/8/2011's page. That is where they put theirs. It won't fit in that top section.
