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."

Hi Beth - Yes we are going to PIR! Can't wait! It is about a 7 hour drive for us, so not too bad - plus my husband's daughter lives in Gurnee so we are somewhat familiar with the area - and the good restaurants!

Just wanted to add a comment so our number isn't ZERO anymore!
Only 47 more days.
Are any of you going to PIR?
