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."

I need a littlle help if anyone can...there is a member asking about bringing a four month old to PIR.

If anyone did this or experienced someone else doing so, would you mind answering her on her discussion?

Or you can answer here and I will copy it over.

Thank you!

Comment by diannep on December 15, 2014 at 2:19pm: Raina, you are very welcome! So glad your Bootcamp/PIR experience was so good! Congrats to your new sailor!

Comment by Raina on December 15, 2014 at 10:15am: Now that the dust has settled from PIR, I wanted to take a moment to thank the "veterans" for their advice these past two months. So, "thank you" for your time and dedication to the families of new recruits and beyond! This journey has been so much easier having gone through it with you :-)

Now, on to A-school !!!

Comment by CatMom509 on December 14, 2014 at 5:38pm: Blessed Sunday!
