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."

my boyfriend is also in the same ship and division!!

YAY ! Finally someone !! haha.. have you heard from him yet ?

no not yet :[ hoping for next week, because i heard they send mail on sundays.

  Here are the latest PIR groups formed. Note the division numbers. The divisions are being formed for the April 20th PIR group.

                PIR: April 20, 2012           TG

                   PIR: April 13, 2012           TG 22 -  10 Divisions (115–122, 810 & 922)

                   PIR: April 6, 2012            TG 21 - 07 Divisions (109–114 & 921)

You can simply copy and paste the links (the underlined stuff) to any comment box - so look for others with same graduation date - let them know about this group. Please save this link by copying and pasting it to your personal page (Click MY PAGE tab on above menu bar). That way, you'll always know where the link to your PIR group is.

We need your help to spread the word. "Veteran" moms leave the site, we need new ones to stay on and help out.

Regards, BQB.

BTW, my son just completed his 5 years commitment and has chosen to work in the civilian world. I want to thank your sons/daughters in advance for committing to serve our great country.
