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."

Susan and Betsy, I am sure we haven't heard from everyone here and there will be others that have the same division. I am just so happy that we all are getting our new names and our children are getting settled in. Love you guys. Hugs.

I know; its just so awesome. PIR information will be published within 2 weeks I think??? My recruiter actually told me he would let me know. I haven't made any firm plans as I wanted to wait until it was more certain......we'll know before too long. I am happy to share my last name in a PM. If we do this can we then write to our SR's and give them that information so they can find each other? How many SR's are in each Div? I bet if I google that I can find out.

Kathy I couldn't reply to your earlier post. I also think the 2011 in front of their division is strange. You don't think they would skip over these divisions then our kids won't graduate until 2011?? It's crazy. It seems that as soon as we get one piece of information we are dying for the next piece, you know?? I am still thinking PIR will be 12/10/10. Its the only thing that makes sense. I noticed that the last PIR dates were updated on Monday so I wonder if they update them every Monday. Things to ponder I guess. Susan
