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."

Jess: I didn't use them, my son would of laughed his head off at the long list and thrown it away (he's that way!). I had a short one I created, but never saved it on my computer. But I have copies of everything I sent him. I'll find it and send it to you via inbox tomorrow and you can see if you like it. It's short and sweet, and he actually answered it and mailed it back!

Jessicab: I'll let you do it, I just got a new laptop and all my old doc files are on other laptop!!! I just hand typed the PDA rules into a discussion above and now my fingers hurt!

I'll see if I have that list to post for you Kim. Keep eye on discussion list for it. Jessicab must finally be getting some dinner!

JessicaB~I saw a day or two ago where you had attached about a page and a half of things to consider when coming to PIR, both for us and our sailors. I can't find that document again, and would like to know if you can post that for our group please! It had things like bring a towel for them to sit on, remind them to not walk and talk on cell phones, don't hug them on the right as they will have to salute at random intervals, etc. Thanks!
Comment by SOBE,PIR 6/4/10 IT Mom, Italy on July 20, 2010 at 7:53pm
Jessicab: My PIR agreed to make name tags that had our user name on top and real names on the bottom. I was the ONLY one who showed up with one on! My real name is Lisa, and I don't mind sharing that. Sobe is my son's nickname, and his favorite drink (next to Red Bulls).

Maureen62 - awesome, we have an event leader! Let us know if you need help posting an event.

Jmy...youre always welcome, you know that :))

I will volunteer to be on contact with Ramada Inn if no one else wants to do it to let them know approx how many in our PIR group are going

Well, Kim, you are a stronger woman than me. I cannot mention panties in the same sentence with my ex. Even typing it has made me shudder.
Comment by SOBE,PIR 6/4/10 IT Mom, Italy on July 20, 2010 at 7:16pm
Geez, started talking about pins and got distracted by the Meet & Greet!! lol.... Okay, some groups like to make/wear something that shows they are a N4M mom. Our PIR kept it simple, we all wore red/white/blue ribbons on our shirts. We also wore them to PIR. Suggestion: Either now or closer to PIR time, be sure to upload a picture of yourself for you profile - that way you will know who each other is!
