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."

I've heard different things. I know the PIR only has 5 divisions which is pretty small. Graduation doesn't have "tickets" just the names on a list. They are limited to 4 names but I did read on here somewhere that others can come and will only be let in if there is room. I think there is a better chance since the PIR is so small. I think the other way would be if other sailors didn't have 4 people on their list and added your extra family to their lists.
That's what I've read on N4M but I'm a newbee just like you. Please join the PIR group! There are only 4 from Div 043 so far. Quite a few of us change our names to include the Ship/Div so we can find each other. -
