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 Michelle02 on November 17, 2011 at 10:54am: They have earned 5 days (2.5 for each month) but I still don't get this holiday leave until the 8th. I know they go in the hole,but i think that means they have to make up the extra days which he will when he attends A school. and will still get liberty during that time. Any clarity will help. I have asked RTC on facebook but never got a answer.

Comment by Ship09/Division023 on November 17, 2011 at 9:57am: My sons told me in a letter yesterday that they get 5 days of leave after their PIR, Has anyone else heard this?

Comment by diannep on November 17, 2011 at 9:44am: Good morning, everyone. Have a great day!

Comment by My son (ship 09, Div 023) on November 17, 2011 at 8:26am: We got 2 letters yesterday and Grandma got 1!! He said his div. is working well together and they all want to be the BEST! He also told us that Nov. 10 was day 2-1 for any of you trying to follow their progress.

Comment by Michelle02 on November 17, 2011 at 8:25am: Lala Ribbon Queen Pir Ribbons: I sent you a email of my order just want to make sure you got it......Thanks Michelle

momhousedivided2, thanks for the words of the day

Comment by ArNavyMom on November 17, 2011 at 8:24am: Good morning ladies and Craig! No letter for me letter yesterday but happy for those that did! YAY Momshousedivided for the letter from your recruit! Have a super day and even better weekend ahead.

Comment by momshousedivided2-Sh 09 Div 023 on November 17, 2011 at 7:10am: Received a letter yesterday. So happy to hear that he is really enjoying it all (even the IT). Said his Div is the loudest ( and proudest- eventhought they get IT'd for it). NOT sure if the others in his Div share the same sentiment, but whatever gets him through BC is fine with me. Was liking the fact that he is getting stronger and his arms are getting bigger( this from the kid that already had "some arms"- my oldest calls him Goliath) haha I cracked up at that. But he did say he was really proud of his Div and all that they are doing. He is just a little like his mama- a good cheerleader( motivator) when need be.

Hope everyone got a "good" letter and can breathe that they are doing ok! Thought I would gear us up for the intense shopping season. Here ya go--

Shopping is a woman thing. It's a contact sport like football. Women enjoy the scrimmage, the noisy crowds, the danger of being trampled to death, and the ecstasy of the purchase. ~Erma Bombeck

Comment by Presleysmom on November 17, 2011 at 1:59am: Lala the ribbons are beautiful I have sent you a friend request I would love to order some

Comment by momshousedivided2-Sh 09 Div 023 on November 16, 2011 at 11:17pm: Love the reminder Ruth that our children are what we prayed for and our prayers were aptly answered. " God be with them, keep them safe, and bring them in our arms safe and sound as often as possible"

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on November 16, 2011 at 11:12pm: Thanks batman... I just excepted your friend request and sent you the info on the ribbons. :-)
