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."

Thanks, Andria! I'll check the Navy Lodge-if it's not too late. Say, don't RS's only GET mail on Sunday's? Should we time our notes to get there the Sunday prior to Battlestations or after? Or do they get mail on Wed.s? Also, who wears the T-shirts? Thanks, friends! :-)

I just got home and the lady from the t-shirt place called. She said that they no longer make xtra shirts for PIR and if you want one it needs to be ordered by tomorrow. She said they will be at your house in time for PIR. She is also able to check if your recruit ordered already...I was able to find out mine already got me one...hehe...I won''t be letting him know. :)

Since the t-shirt place I called is not interested in my business enough to return my call, it looks like I will have to get one at PIR! At least I will be able to see the quality, sizes, and flag prior to purchasing one.
OOHH Time, Please hurry!!!

I downloaded the form for the t-shirts from the site I listed below. I called the phone number to ask questions and was directed to an answering machine. I left my phone number and am waiting for them to return my call. I will let everyone know if and when I hear from them and what they say. I did see from a previous post that we could order pics and other memorabilia at the NEX after PIR.
Goodnight, girls. May you be blessed with wonderful dreams of PIR!!!

Trying not to stress out on hotels... but I did speak with my son's girlfriend who GOT A CALL a couple of days ago and said he sounded great and that he said he's in the honor's division and loves it! So if he could call her, maybe the punishment was way back and minimal?
