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 time
to 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".

Thank you:)

Just asked my sailor about rewards she said she don't think you would get in trouble but says you should double check
Comment by maboltship on September 15, 2012 at 6:27pm

know this is a dumb question...but, can the sailors use rewards numbers on their reservations when traveling on the airlines. or would they get in trouble for adding a reward number?

Comment by diannep on September 15, 2012 at 10:00am

...should clarify that I meant the sailors are told by the RDCs,, not USO staff.  We know that the USO staff tell them they can. 

Comment by diannep on September 15, 2012 at 9:58am

ProudNavyMom:  So glad that you could do that....the sailors are told that they cannot leave the airport once there (at least, they use to be told that).  Just make sure to have him back on time....I'm sure you will!  Enjoy!

Enjoy the airport visits!

Sorry. We're at O'Hare. I saw MLDD also:)..
Comment by MamaLamaDingDong: AO/Pensacola on September 15, 2012 at 8:20am
We're at O'Hare. Daughter leaves at 11:45. Did good yesterday but today, with very little sleep, I'm pretty emotional!
