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 11/20/2012

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".

My husband told me that he sent out a few on Sunday and I should have received them yesterday but I still haven't received anything. I wondering if maybe they didn't send their letters out last week???

Comment by diannep on November 2, 2012 at 7:48am: Personally, I think Jack Flash's outfit is very appropriate! Maybe you can "share" with all on here where they can get one just like it...and you all can have your own marching division at PIR! :-)

Comment by diannep on November 2, 2012 at 7:47am: Good Morning Ladies!

Here is a tv interview done yesterday with Brett's wife and brother. He had a rough day yesterday (not mentioned in the interview since it was done in the morning)...problems with kidney and dialysis, fever, in pain. Please continue to pray. They are hoping to get him sitting up today after 16 days on his back. Thanks so much!
