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."

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on October 27, 2014 at 8:11pm: Hello! Welcome to your PIR Group!

Fireteamleaderwife here. You can call me FTLW, it's easier :-)

My Sailor PIR’d in 05/2011. He is a Seabee Reservist. I have been an AF (Security Forces) Reservist wife for 28 years…I know …not Navy…but I am familiar with military life! We have been through two Deployments. Now working on Retirement process from AF and soon from Civilian job. Our son enlisted while Hubby was in Iraq. This site was a Godsend and helped me get through not only our sons BC experience but my husbands and my separation for 6 months.

I am a “veteran” mom on the PIR groups mostly.

Comment by xelamom on October 27, 2014 at 6:18pm: Got the box (Fedex) and the letter (USPS). Made me sad. I have a letter ready to go and will mail to my son tomorrow.

Comment by Raina on October 27, 2014 at 5:41pm: YES!

Got the box AND the letter today. Put a letter in the mail for my boy :-)

Ship 13 Div 043

A special "hey" to norcalpops and ktsmom :-)

Comment by My2kidz on October 27, 2014 at 5:11pm: Box finally here. Poor Fedex guy didn't even get to stop before I was out the door! I didn't scare him off however because he knew where the box was from and wished my son the best and thanked him for his service. Clothing was a bit ripe but he had taken the time to write me a lovely letter which made me cry for the first time since he left. Still waiting on the form letter even though the recruiter gave me his info. Glad to be taking this journey with all of you :)
