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 families and friends of Salilor Recruits with PIR THURSDAY, December 29, 2011.

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the time to read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are never 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 discouraged as their RDC's read this site and can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.CLICK MEOPSECandCOMMUNITY GUIDELINES

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on November 29, 2011 at 8:23am: I have a feeling that PAO is going to have a lot of cookies :-)

Comment by ArNavyMom on November 29, 2011 at 7:22am: Good morning to one and good morning to all!

@ Angie, I am going to bring goodies for the fb team! I have been glued to that site (sad that both Trivia Tuesday and Wacky Wednesday are on hold until after the holidays...sure would've been sweet to have a quick glimse via photo of my kid and his division this time of year!).

@ Batmansmom - LOVE LOVE LOVE the poems! Saved them so when my SR is a Sailor I can pass out as prayer cards to my family and friends.

@ FTLW - missed you on here! praying you are on the mend! it is never fun being sick!

@ Presleysmom - GREAT info. Blue or black ink only!

@ Momshousedivided - SCHNAUZERS???? NO WAY! We have a Min Schnauzer. Gunther. He is our 2nd one in the past 20 years. He is 6. Got him as a pup. Personality is hilarious. So dif from our first one Beau. Love him! All 17 lbs of him. Perfecft breed for those that love dogs but have terrible allergies b/c they NEVER shed!

@ ALL - Have a TERRIFIC TUESDAY! We are almost in the 20's for days left...30 days and 3 hours until PIR...not that I'm counting or anything! lol

Comment by momshousedivided2-Sh 09 Div 023 on November 29, 2011 at 6:55am: Good morning. The new pup ( Martini) is a 1/2 sis to our other one(Tequila)( we just went with a fun theme- haha). They are both Schnauzers. They are so much fun. Personaity abounds! Took a few days for T to understand that the baby was a new playmate and she can be NICE to her. Whew I was a little worried for a day or so. Not much else going on. Received two letters yesterday. I think they were supposed to get here before Thanksgiving and didn't because of what he wrote, but it still was great. He just cracks me up. Upbeat and full of personality and I am sure his Chief will attest to that "personality". haha He is just that kid... you want to strangle and hug get mad at and laugh with all within a matter of minutes.

Ok- as we all head into the land of Christmas.. parties and get togethers- with co-workers and friends....

For centuries men have kept an appointment with Christmas. Christmas means fellowship, feasting, giving and receiving, a time of good cheer, home. ~W.J. Ronald Tucker

Comment by Presleysmom on November 29, 2011 at 2:46am: I got to talk to my son on Saturday it was wonderful. He did make one request and that was to not write letters in red pen because they read their letters under a read light and the page looks blank. Who knew, I was just grabbing what ever pen was close. Blue or black from me from now on. Learn something new each day. Lol

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 29, 2011 at 12:37am: Angie...that is a wonderful idea! I am not on FB but I did make sure to send a thank you for the Adopt a Sailor program at Thanksgiving directly to PAO. It really is wonderful of them. Will do it for Cristmas Adopt a Sailor and for this one too. They always answer my questions promptly!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 29, 2011 at 12:34am: Sorry I have been MIA…down with stomach flu today. Man, haven’t had it this bad in years!

I am “vertical” for a little while though! Will read through to see how you all are doing!
