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 Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 25, 2010 at 12:01pm: Got my pass printed, so excited!!!!

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 25, 2010 at 11:54am: It came a week or so after his belongings came. Yes, you can print out two passes or more at a time. He may not have said anything because they seem to be overwhelmed with everything they're going through.

Comment by Andysmom on October 25, 2010 at 11:49am: Did it come with his personal belongings? That went to his dads house. UGH. Message left. His dad is going up the day before. Are we able to get 2 passes printed? I talked to my son Friday and he didn't say anything about it. UGH!

Comment by diannep on October 25, 2010 at 11:41am: You should have already received that? It was sent out within the first 2 weeks of bc to the families. If you didn't get it, you will need to ask your recruit for the PASSWORD. Your SR is the one who handwrote in that word in the form letter.

Comment by Andysmom on October 25, 2010 at 11:39am: Form letter??? Is this something I should be receiving?

Comment by diannep on October 25, 2010 at 11:37am: Andysmom: Google 'Upcoming Navy graduations". Click on the first website offered. The different PIR group will come up then. You can click on the "Get gate pass" option by your PIR date. You will need the password that was in your form letter, and make sure to type it in ALL CAPS. Print it and then handwrite the info in.

Comment by Andysmom on October 25, 2010 at 11:34am: Dumb question?? Where's the parking pass link?

Comment by shinertxgal(ship 7 div 358) on October 25, 2010 at 11:20am: Just printed the gate pass....forgot I had to type the password in caps - LOL.....almost panicked there for a minute lol!

Comment by diannep on October 25, 2010 at 11:15am: Oneoftheballs: I think you may be too late to get on someone else's PIR guest list. They normally have to have their lists finalized 2 weeks before PIR. But don't worry...make sure you have photo ID for the boys (drivers license or state ID) and although they may have to wait until all guests on the lists are in, they probably will then get in to see their brother! They may not even have to wait....but no guarantee on that.
