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."

From the time my daughter left Dec 13th up until this past Saturday, Which is well over a month i finally got her call.. You talking about somebody happy it was like a breath of fresh air to hear my baby's voice. We must have talked for about 20 minutes or so. I cant wait for PIR on the 8th of Feb Thank you Lord we don't stay far from GL and i get to spend that day with her. 1 thing for certain and 2 things for sure the good Lord may not come when you want him to but he's alway's on time..

That is great that you got that call. It's not long until PIR. What rating (job/specialty) will she have? Where she goes for "A" School or training will determine how much time she has with you PIR weekend and there are groups on here for many of the ratings and/or "A" Schools.

navymom330, Check out PIR Day and Liberty During PIR Weekend within Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones). I have included 2 groups in that Page that you may want to join. What will her rating (job/specialty) be? There may be a group for it as well.

ALL SMILES @ LADYHAWK AND LEMONELEPHANT HER JOB IS MECHANICAL ENGINEERING OO BEFORE I FORGET IS THERE SOME SORT OF PASS THAT I NEED TO PRINT OUT FOR PIR PARKING ETC.....

The password you need to download the vehicle/gate pass is in the form letter. You will be able to download the pass next week (11 days before PIR) at http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil/upcoming_grads.asp. Do you know the specific rating? Mechanical Engineering is not a rating. Is her contract perhaps for Mechanical/Engine Apprentice? If so, she is in the E-PACT program and you will want to join the group, Undesignated...What's Up With That?.
