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."

~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"

Hello All!
"Let us all then approach the throne of grace
with confidence, so that we may receive mercy
and find grace to help us in our time of need."
Hebrews 4:16
Private messages to which fb page?
Good Morning All. For those not on the PIR 10/10 group page. This is a FYI. There is a contest going on by the Armed Services Blood Program. In honor of "Talk Like a Pirate Day" on Friday Sept 19th, they are asking for pictures of people, pets, you name it to be submitted via private message on FB (uploaded to the group page will not count and will be deleted) of anyone dressed like a Pirate. Does not have to be full costume, could be a hat, a bandanna, scarf, eye patch etc Each picture taken should have a sign with Ship # and Division #. The Division that received the most pictures wins. The Prize is a picture of that Division. Lets go PIR 10/10 start getting those pictures submitted. Remember they have to be PM's via FB. If you do not have a FB account let me know. We want one of our Divisions to win. Would love if it was my SRs Div 318
Good Morning All !

"The Lord will hold you in His hand for all to see --

There will be a basket raffle at the Meet & Greet. We are now up to 32 baskets promised. We are still looking for more baskets. If you would like to donate a basket, you can comment here or send me a private message. I am also on the 10/10 PIR groups on FB. We would love for this to be the best raffle EVER!!! Thank you to all who have promised so far.
Good Morning!
Blessed Sunday!
"Every word of God is flawless;
He is a shield to those those
who take refuge in Him."
