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."

Yep! They could get all of them and and their families on PIR morning! because they would know that pretty much, each and every Fri morning, sailors and families are there! You are exactly correct on that. Like I said, this is more of practice for ladies to learn that once your sailor is deployed, you really do have to be careful about discussing the location of their ships and specifics of their jobs.
