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."

Hi MagoostersMom and NavyGirl. No call here either. Hope to hear soon. Is anyone's SR staying in GL for A school? Mine is and will be doing GSE. Very excited to only be 13 days away from seeing my SR. Hope to see you all at the meet and greet but our flight isn't getting in until 8. I hate to show up late if it is a structured event.

Well it's Sunday morning and hoping maybe a call today from div 013. If not I guess the call will come after BS. The nice thing is we will see them in 11 days.

Hi my son is Div 13 also and I am on pins and needles waiting for the call that we are all clear for PIR. We are coming in from Houston. I had a question I thought I had read somewhere that parents can give their SR a PIR coin. Where can I find these and are there any others they would have earned during this time?
