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 am ordering 4 ribbons for my family! I am so excited to get them!
As for the weather I am also going to wear layers. I am from a cold place, but not that cold! Oh man I really hope it doesn't rain when we are there. I'm sure my husband will want to be out and about.

I recommend layering for the weather, that way you can peel off when you get too warm.

Okay, I was lookin at the weather forecast for PIR weekend. Fri is partly sunny with highs in the upper 40's and lows in the upper 20's. Sat. it shows rain and possibly freezing rain and sleet that night. So for those of us from the south, pull those winter clothes back out cuz we call that cold! : ) LOL Can't wear that nice new Easter dress, looks like our Christmas outfits will work better up there!

Hi All! I don't have a son in the group but the guy I'm on this site for is my daughter's boyfriend. We think the world of her boyfriend and his family so we just want to be as supportive as we can. We will be driving up there for PIR but probably won't get there til late Thursday evening. We are looking forward to meeting everyone and watching a great group of guys go through graduation! Thanks for letting me tag along even though I don't actually have a son here (my stepson was in the Navy years ago, if that counts!).

Here's the link for the ribbons. I got mine pretty quickly so send her a message and see if she can do it.

Thanks for the information.
I will try my hardest to make the meet and great. My mom will be with me. Since I'm not 25 I can't rent a car. But my mom is going to. So I will talk to her. but it sounds like a great idea! I probably won't be able to wear the scarf to the PIR because I will be holding my son infront of me in a baby carrier and I am not sure if it will cover his face. but I will do my best. Maybe I can tie it around the carrier or something. My husband said there is only one other person with a baby in his divison. So I don't think there will be too many babies there. Do you thinks to late to order a ribbon? I would love to get one for my son and me.
