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."

You have joined the group, PIR 08/30/2013 TG 42 - 11 Divisions (321-330 and 942); others will be joining you there when they get the form letter. Divisions 321 and 322 are brother divisions and train together and will have Battle Stations-21 together, so look for others with loved ones in either division.  There will later be a discussion within that group for the two divisions.

 

I saw something about brother divisions on Navy for Moms... now I understand.  Thanks for the info!

You are very welcome.

Hi, we very excited as well, so proud of our son.

ship 13 div 322...just go a call fr my son !!!!!! What a joy to hear "Hi Mom"....he said all is well with him and div. also there was lots of people waiting to make a call.....so stay by your phones!!!

Hi, When did you son arrive at BC?

He arrived on June 28, how about your?

He arrived July 8th....so maybe next week a call? How did he sound?

Was just reading Sarge's info re PIR and other N4M PIR info.  It suggested that families who are going 'adopt' another sailor who's family could not make it that day so here is the offer. My son is in SHip 13 Div 322 and we will definitely be there PIR weekend.  If you have a son in the same division and you can't make it, we would be happy to 'adopt' him.  It was suggested possibly even sending cell phone, etc to the 'adopting' family so we could get it to him.  Totally happy to do that for whomever needs it!!!!

Where is Sarge's information?

There is info from Sarge in a link at the top of PIR Day and Liberty During PIR Weekend and I suspect that is the Page she is referring to based on her comment.

Its on the right hand side of the

PIR 8-30-13 Ship 13 Div 322 

page. Scroll to the bottom of the Events calendar and then click view all.  You will have to forward through until you get to PIR 8/30/13. Sorry it took me so long to respond but I don't get on this site often!
