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 Abbe'sMom(Ike CVN69) on November 23, 2010 at 4:43pm: There is handicapped parking, it is closer to the PIR building and they will direct you there when you get to the gate.

Comment by Aggie08Mom (ship 02,div. 903) on November 23, 2010 at 4:35pm: Dianne, I'm sure I have one somewhere, but we don't have to keep them in our car, so I'm not exactly sure what document it is I need. I went by the tag agency and they said just bring in my title and they'll give me what I need. Thanks for your help.

Comment by diannep on November 23, 2010 at 4:32pm: Aggie: Do you have to renew your license tag every year? Here in FL, they don't send a new one each year, they just send a dated expiration sticker to put on it. Then after a few years, they give you a new tag. But attached to the sticker is a card that is our registration that we have to keep with our insurance card. Good idea to call a tag agency. Even if they don't ask for it at the gate, better to have it.

Comment by chandlersmom on November 23, 2010 at 4:01pm: Ok yall I am so excited about PIR!! I was walking through the store today and just started getting all teary thinking of Chandler in his uniform! My little boy is now a Man! I still have 4 little ones to go hope they follow in thier big brothers footsteps! Can't wait to meet all of you! I love getting your posts it makes it even more exciting!!

Comment by TMH (Ship 9 Div.14) on November 23, 2010 at 2:19pm: Good Luck to all those with Battle Stations!!!

Comment by Marti Jacob's Mom on November 23, 2010 at 2:17pm: It is cool to see us second from the top on the parking pass site. Much better then being at the bottom of the list. Hard to believe next week end we will see our Cute boys and girls in uniforms.

Comment by jessica (ship 09 div 015) on November 23, 2010 at 2:02pm: DOWN TO SINGLE DIGITS NOW YESSS

Comment by Marti Jacob's Mom on November 23, 2010 at 1:53pm: Julie my son opened the navy fed. at boot camp and he said he got his card there. Not right away a couple weeks later.

Comment by Aggie08Mom (ship 02,div. 903) on November 23, 2010 at 1:05pm: Thanks, everybody, for the info. I figure I'll go to a tag agent here and make sure. I'd hate to get there and not be allowed past the gate because I don't have the right papers.

Julie, my son opened his Navy federal credit union account here before he left for Great Lakes, and his debit card was mailed to the house a few weeks later, if that's any help.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on November 23, 2010 at 12:53pm: Aggie- I am not sure about OK but in NC and most states the registration is the card that is used to get your tag renewed. I don't think you need a title. Just your insurance should be enough if your state doesn't have registration cards. Maybe Jessica or Diannep can correct me if I am wrong. They didn't even ask me for anything except my ID when we drove onto the base, but I know they pick some cars to be more thorough.
