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 10/26/2012!

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 ZeeKittiKat Ship2Div950 on October 13, 2012 at 11:51pm: awe bummer... well if anyone ordered a division 950 shirt and has a pic of it message me!!! lol thanks for the info!!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on October 13, 2012 at 11:50pm: Congrats on the Calls and letters!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on October 13, 2012 at 11:50pm: ZeeKittiKat - I'm afraid you cannot. The first time anyone sees them is on the Flag at PIR. Your SR can only describe them to you.

EXCEPT for those who order them and get them BEFORE PIR, then they of course know what they look like :-D.

Comment by ZeeKittiKat Ship2Div950 on October 13, 2012 at 11:44pm: So I am interested in the division t-shirts but how do I see what they look like before I order? How can you find out what the division flag looks like?

Comment by dohnermom on October 13, 2012 at 11:00pm: Good Night All, When I wake up tomorrow we will be down to 11 days... Yeah!!

Comment by missingmygiant on October 13, 2012 at 9:23pm: I got to talk to my love today, and got a letter from him today too, I was soo happy! Instantly, after he was off the phone, emotions kicked in when I read his letter. He said that 3 of the ppl on his guest list cant make it to his PIR, and that he really NEEDS to see me, and I cant make it either. I just barely came to terms with the fact that I cant go yesterday and refused to make myself sicker stressing myself out in trying to find a way to be there. Now I feel even worse, all my emotions and pain of missing him came back x10 after talking to him. Shouldn't I just be happy I got to hear from him and not be so stressed out?

Comment by Bryansmom on October 13, 2012 at 3:29pm: Wow! Phone call & a letter today! It's a beautiful day!

Comment by diannep on October 13, 2012 at 2:42pm: Kim, just go to Lala's page. Her info is there and you can message her from there.
