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."

Comment by proudmom on March 10, 2012 at 2:47pm: well no letter here today ladies:-( . How about anyone else? still crossing fingers for maybe a phone call this weekend!!!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on March 10, 2012 at 2:35pm: proudmom I look forward to hearing about this riffle division. It sounds pretty cool whatever it is :-)

momabeans- hang in there, I know the days pass slowly but the weeks are passing quickly. Anytime you are feeling down just come to this site and let us know we will perk you up like an old fashioned coffee pot lol.

Comment by mamabeans on March 10, 2012 at 2:18pm: I am also very proud to be a part of this PIR group. When I come on here and read all of the people supporting each other, being concerned for each other, helping each other, I think it is AMAZING! I was worried when I became the creator of this group that it would be a dramafest. And it definitely is not and it lifts my spirits and makes me smile to hear stories and sharing info! So a big thank you to all the moms, gf's, guardians, grandparents, etc on this group!

Comment by mamabeans on March 10, 2012 at 2:15pm: Spring932... No call yet but I did get a letter this week. Thank you for thinking of me!

Sorry all I haven't been on much this week. The week before Spring Break at work is tough. Plus, I have been very depressed this week. Change of seasons maybe. I just don't have any energy at all and just drudge through the days. I got excited because I heard that someone from my work in another department had a child that went away for Navy. Thought I would have a personal "buddy" so I hunted them down. Turns out that its "no big deal" for them and that their kid is in the Navy Academy so they talk, skype and write all the time. So that was no help at all. :( Just kinda made me jealous.

Comment by Bob's mom on March 10, 2012 at 2:06pm: Y'all want to feel better? Read the forum discussions for April 20 and 27 PIR.

Comment by spring932 on March 10, 2012 at 1:08pm: navy1of5...... did you get a call???

Comment by diannep on March 10, 2012 at 11:02am: Good morning all!

Comment by proudmom on March 10, 2012 at 9:55am: Good Morning Ladies!!! I am in much better spirits today so here is to hoping for some letters and phone calls for everyone!!!!

Comment by proudmom on March 10, 2012 at 9:51am: Oh and my son has no experience with drill team or anything along those line unless it involved a game controller...LOL

Comment by proudmom on March 10, 2012 at 9:46am: Lala actually very few of us have rcvd letters yet from of recruits in the 04/119. So what info we have has come mostly from the quick security calls we have gotten and the few letters. The div is made up of spec ops, future seals and said they were a rifle division. So I was just wondering what that meant. Maybe when our letters start coming in we will get more information.
