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 mommafinn(ship-12 DIV-204) on June 26, 2012 at 12:58pm: leftwayleft YOU HAVE BEEN SUCH A NICE HELPFUL PERSON TO ME & SO MANY OTHER FOLKS... I don't know the reason why your son is being sent home or why it has been so long for all of you. My goodness i am so sorry. But it sounds as though all has worked out for all of you & i am happy it won't be something that has left ill effects on on you or your son. I also want to say what an inspiration you have been to so many people as you have been dealing with all this & your son to those around him plus you have helped so many along the way. Bless you Both and i wish him well in all he dose,please to let us know where his path leads so we can rejoice with you all in his success .

Comment by Runnermom on June 26, 2012 at 12:53pm: What a lucky young man to have such a strong and loving mom!

Comment by Runnermom on June 26, 2012 at 12:09pm: Leftwayleft: My thoughts and prayers go with you. I know this must be a very hard time for you and your son. I believe you are right in that God has a different plan-for now- and I hope that faith gives you both invaluable comfort and strength.

Comment by Jill on June 26, 2012 at 11:16am: leftwayleft: I've been following your comments, and just wanted to let you know that you and your son are in my thoughts. I encourage you to join the Ship 4 Div 2341 group. Even if your son is not in Ship 4, there are a lot of mom's on there who have already gone through what you are going through, and just reading the comments can be of help to you. A lot of them have gone on to Ship 5 by now, but are still there to help other mom's through the process. Prayers for you and your son!

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on June 26, 2012 at 10:33am: Lala, hoping today will be a sunny one for you. I didn't realize that you were going to be there that long. That's great!

BJA57, oh I'm so sorry to hear that. I will keep them in my prayers.

Good Morning ladies! I've been off of here for a couple of days. We had a very busy Sunday. My husband just decided that he wanted to power wash our deck (the previous owners had painted it, :( ) so we were doing that all day. Then yesterday I had to take my mom to a doctor's visit, then lunch and shopping.

Hope everyone is having a terrific Tuesday.

Comment by MSmom on June 26, 2012 at 9:49am: Leftwayleft. Have you heard anything yet.

Comment by BJA57 on June 26, 2012 at 9:03am: Happy and safe travels, everyone!!! (please hold my sailor-son in your thoughts and prayers as his wife just cancelled her plans to attend--- he must be so sad to not be able to see her and his sweet girls)

Hope to see you all on Thursday at Sarges...

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on June 26, 2012 at 8:35am: We are having the party on Wednesday (tomorrow) as long as the storms don't get too bad. If they do we will reschedule. We would love to have anyone who would like to come to please let me know. Would love to meet you all. I know many of you will already be on your way to PIR but we will be here until July 8th so if you can't come this week maybe we could meet for lunch or something next week. My email address is uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com

Comment by diannep on June 26, 2012 at 8:22am: Good morning! Look for those I'm a Sailor calls from 203/204 this afternoon. They could start as early as 2 pm GL time so keep those phones handy!
