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 06/29/2012

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance. Please take the timeto read the OPSEC and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names of Sailors/Recruits 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 diannep on May 10, 2012 at 8:14am: SarahsMom/Thomandker: Those in Ship 2 should have an address of 3600 Ohio St. Hope that is what the recruiter gave you!

Comment by diannep on May 10, 2012 at 8:11am: shannon: If possible, wait for the form letter address. Sometimes it is different from what the recruiter gives you. You can write the letters now....then just slap on that address when the form letter arrives and mail all of the letters at once.

If you do get an address from the recruiter and want to write now, be sure to verify it with the form letter address when it comes and make corrections as need be. RTC post office does the best they can to get letters to the SRs, even with an incorrect address, but it takes longer. Just saw an incorrect address on another PIR site...one recruiter, the other from the form letter. So just giving you a heads up! The recruiters get it off of the computer and sometimes it changes.

Comment by shannon04 on May 9, 2012 at 11:38pm: Thanks FireTeamLeaderWife - I really need to get the address but his recruiter will not call me back, it might be time to stop by and get the information, but I figure I will wait until Monday because I know they are busy on Thursdays with DEP check in's and what not. This site has been so helpful, and I can not wait for the lost feeling to be lifted! :)

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on May 9, 2012 at 10:36pm: Just and FYI:

The Weather Widget is interactive.

If you hold your cursor over the top bar:

To the far left is the LIVE tab.This shows the current weather. If you go to another day or time and want to return to the current weather just click LIVE.

The tab next to it is the time you are at.

Next to that is the date. Click the arrows to advance or retreat OR click on it and you will get a Calendar and can click on any date.

The rest of the top bar is the current day. The little green marker is what the current time is. Slide your cursor across to go to any time of the day

The weather will change in the Picture accordingly. The Big Square box on the right with the written details will change also.

Just under the top bar to the left are the next four days of the week...click on those to look at them...click on the arrow to extend...it will add two more days.

All the little balloons, birds, planes, falling stars etc. are added features I believe. But when it is windy or cloudy...those reflect the true weather conditions.

Comment by mareluc(Ship11/Div196/PIR 6/29) on May 9, 2012 at 10:08pm: thomandker - my son is going to be an Air Traffic Controller too - how does your son like it?

Comment by Sarahsmom on May 9, 2012 at 9:39pm: Thomandker - LOL!! That is too funny, my co-worker said my daughter would be Private Benjamin too! Sarah also has a great sense of humor, not sure she has had much to laugh about yet but I'm sure the Div will have their moments! Our girls sound a lot alike!

Comment by Sarahsmom on May 9, 2012 at 9:27pm: Thomandker- my daughter arrived at RTC last Wed night too and we got the address from the recruiter today. I can finally mail all of the letters I've written her : )

Juliebelle28 - thank you for the pics! I can't wait to see it all in person 6/29!

Comment by Sarahsmom on May 9, 2012 at 8:43pm: My daughter is Ship 02 Division 933, anyone else? I am so happy to finally have her address!! I read that Division 933 is the Performing Division, does anyone know what that means? Thank You!

Comment by diannep on May 9, 2012 at 6:10pm: Just posted the BattleStations discussion above.

Comment by mareluc(Ship11/Div196/PIR 6/29) on May 9, 2012 at 4:52pm: I started the Divisional Discussion for Ship 11/Div 196. Looking forward to connect with others in same Division!
