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 the discussion group for division 952.

Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.

Get to know each other, your SRs are!
 
 Please still use the Main Wall of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area as often as we would like.
 
Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine
Every single member is important to us
We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.

Hang in there!!!

I now have a photo of my SR up.  I am new to this stuff so it took me awhile to do this.  I know for some of you all this stuff is as easy as talking on the phone.  But trust me, it's not for me.  My SR can't believe I found this web site and that I'm using it.  This is all out of a great need to reach out to Moms going through the same ups and downs as I am.  Believe me when I say that this web site has been a great help and comfort to me.  By the way, 3 weeks before bootcamp my SR cut all that long red hair.  It's still as red as the day she was born, but now there is about as much as the day she was born.

haha CUTE!

Your page ROCKS Kathy! There is one, and 952 also has a private page. =)
