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 11/09/2012!

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 mrs.jane.rad on November 2, 2012 at 7:25pm: So excited!! Got an I'm a sailor call from my Husband, div 367, he said the whole div passed!! He was really tired and excited, said the whole div had really come together! He was also really excited about being able to get an energy drink, he had been on watch for awhile. Also, he said he got a peek at his orders and probably has a week off before he has to go to A school in Mississippi! So happy about that and excited to figure out what comes next!!
