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 know most of you are probably traveling by now but...Hello all, my SR is in the PIR Group of 3-11-11 and is in the 917 Division, and what I have been told is that he might play at the PIR the week or up to two weeks before he graduates. If anyone happens to take pictures of this PIR and happens to snap a shot of the Band (he plays trumpet and is a tall red head (see photo) if you would send them to me I would be one happy Mama!!! Please, and thank you, with sugar on top LOL.

Congratulations to you and your SAILORS! You have all come a long way, from a bunch of scared, confused ladies, to a strong Navy family. I see my job here is done, so I take my leave of your group.
Feel free to send me a private message, or add me as a friend if you have a question I may be able to help with. Don't forget, there are groups for each school location (not usually for each school). Do stay in this group. All you have to do is change the name to something generic, meaningful for you, and fun! The group I joined for my son's boot camp experience still exists under a new name, and we still post regularly. Saturday is the one-year anniversary of our sailors' PIR last year, and we're having a virtual get-together to celebrate. The friendships made here can last for years, maybe even a lifetime.
So, goodbye, adios, aufwiedersehen, and maybe I will see you in the Japan group in the future.

2-18 Moms, Please take the time to post information in the appropriate discussions of the PIR Reference Information Group. You have such a wealth of knowledge that will help those waiting to go to PIR. Proud Mom, I posted your comments on the PIR Reference Comment Wall and will sort your information into the discussions this evening. If you have the time to add to those discussion files, that would be wonderful! Congratulations to your SR's and to all of you!
