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 09/14/2012! A place for friends and family to stay connected!

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 in your username you will need to change your username. If yours 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 to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends".

Comment by kimboskids2010/Nuke-TR on September 17, 2012 at 2:55pm: Ladies- Wow!! it was great to see all of our kids wasn't it. i wanted to hug Aaron all day long, but i didn't want to get him "in trouble" Hope all had safe travel to and from Chicago...we did but missed TWO tolls somehow...not any tollroads in western kansas. We did remember to go to Illinoistollway.com to take care of it. :)

Aaron flew out of Chicago about 6:00 a.m. Sat., so short visit...he is at Charleston, SC for A school.

Comment by Mamma D on September 17, 2012 at 2:37pm: MLDD,

Just wanted to apologize I was sitting next to you and your husband in the briefing room and did not realize it was you until someone pointed you out at the airport. I wish i had known I would have given you a great big hug for all you did for our group!! And of course we were heading in different directions in the airport :(

Comment by Mamma D on September 17, 2012 at 2:25pm: Does anyone have pictures of Honor and Award winners? My hands were shaking so bad my pics are horrible :(

Comment by Angie CTT/Pensacola on September 17, 2012 at 11:04am: Good Morning Ladies,

I pray everyone made it back safely!!! I had a short but wonderful weekend with my Son. I was so excited to see that smile on his face. I called him last night and jokingly said "I have you on the hip now", he goes Mom I alaready know you're going to try to make up those 8 weeks!!! LOL
