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 cody's mom (ship 12 div 091) on January 18, 2011 at 11:05pm: Im soooo confused. my son is Ship 12 DIV 091. is pir 3-4 or 3-11??? his form letter said 3-4

Comment by Mollie (Ship 12 DIV 095) on January 18, 2011 at 10:55pm: I was able to get my son's address from the recruiter today. I haven't received the form letter yet so I'm still not certain of the PIR date. My son is SHIP 12 DIV 095. Anyone else in this group?

Comment by momsnavyman on January 18, 2011 at 10:30pm: got my letter today that my son graduates 3/11/11, with a short little note..... but it was awesome!!!! i have a 6 year also, does he need a ticket, i thought i heard certain age and under does not use up a ticket for graduation. ad how do we get more tickets if we have a big family? any tips would be great. thanks ladies...

Comment by JaredJen (Seth) on January 18, 2011 at 8:00pm: Got the letter he's Ship 12 Div 098. Anyone else have someone is this group?

Comment by ashlove2317-GM C SCH. SAN DIEGO on January 18, 2011 at 6:50pm: Got the letter today too.

Ship 12 Div 097

Handwriting all the letters I typed up on the computer this past week right now. I went out and bought decorative paper and envelopes so he has something entertaining to look at. I bought him two cards and printed pictures of me, him, and our son. I also printed out the questionare that lala ribbon put up here so i can use them. I also printed this http://www.navyformoms.com/forum/topics/good-advice-for-navy-boot-camp for him, i know its suppose to be for before they leave, but i think it could help them.

Comment by Jean H (ship 12 Div 091) on January 18, 2011 at 6:42pm: yes Scotts mom. My son is in that div.

Comment by Lia (Navy Wife) on January 18, 2011 at 6:38pm: We haven't gotten the form letter yet, but we found out from his recruiter today that he is in Ship 02 Div 917. I finally get to start sending all my letters to him! Can't wait to get some from him :)

Comment by diannep on January 18, 2011 at 5:40pm: If anyone on this site is in a division from 91 and higher, and the PIR date was listed in the letter as March 4th, it is incorrect. It is actually 3/11. See the post below to JakesMom. Div 91-102 and 917 are PIRing on 3/11.

Comment by diannep on January 18, 2011 at 5:37pm: JakesMom: The PIR date is incorrect in your letter. You can call the Public Affairs Office for confirmation (847-688-2405) but his date is actually 3/11, just like this group! Also check the upcoming graduation dates on RTC site and you will see 91 is listed in 3/11. Now it is very possible that he will become a sailor on 3/4 because he most likely will be in the first BattleStations group to go for his PIR group since he is in 91, the first division. If they go on Feb 3rd/4th, he becomes a sailor on the 4th! But PIR date is 3/11.
