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."

BASKETS FOR SARGE'S MEET AND GREET***IMPORTANT INFO***
Hello Everyone! I have offered to set up and run a basket raffle for the meet and greet on 10/10! If anyone is interested in donating a basket from their state that would be awesome! Since most of you will be traveling and staying in hotels, I think it would be great if you know someone from your state and want to do a state basket together! I was told that there is a Wal-Mart and Dollar store very close to the meet and greet and baskets could be purchased when you arrive. There is also a post in regards to this on the PIR facebook page! If you have any questions or would like to donate, please let me know! Thanks!!

LLLamaMama,
Are you planning on doing a basket for Sarge's Meet & Greet? If not, you can re-post your question on the Main page of your PIR group and see if someone can help you there~~

I'm glad you made it to the FB PIR group and that I was able to help you! You do what you can for the meet n greet...no questions asked from me!! One of the reasons that I stepped up to do the basket raffle is that I have an advantage...family in the area! Yes, I have to travel but only 6 hours by car and then we stay at my oldest son's home! If I had to fly or travel and stay in a hotel, I would have never took on the responsibility! We are going to have fun...can't wait!!
