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."

Welcome to PIR 02/03/2012!

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the timeto read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are not allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on January 4, 2012 at 1:07pm: welcome Marcy, my SIL is an IT :-)

Comment by diannep on January 4, 2012 at 1:04pm: Glad to have you, Marcy. I bet that you can answer some Navy questions on here as they come up --since you have had a sailor in longer than most of us N4Moms veterans have.

Lala: Me too! Maybe chocolate is the "fountain of youth?" I don't know...the lines in my face say otherwise! :[-)

Comment by AngelW (Ship 07 Div 060) on January 4, 2012 at 12:58pm: Niemi, sorry about the cost. it has gone up since i booked. i just took the one that Sarge told me about. i hope you find a good one :)

Are we all counting down the days? I cant wait!!!

Comment by Trisha(Ship12Div054)Michael<3 on January 4, 2012 at 12:34pm: Morning all. :) Welcome Marcy. ^_^

Comment by Marcy on January 4, 2012 at 11:46am: Hi everyone. My nephew is in division 054. I love how you guys have the count down clock too. I also have a son in the Navy, so I am kind of a veteran on here. My son has been in for 41/2 yrs but I joined this group for my nephew. My sister is so looking forward to PIR too. I am so excited for all of you and your sailors and for my nephew. He is going to be an IT.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on January 4, 2012 at 10:06am: Good morning everyone.

Dianne if Chocolate is the answer to living long I am here for eternity :-)
