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."

1st - I suggest like / follow the Navy Recruit Training Command fb page. (Link Below)
The PIR fb page admin's watch that page and my contact you via message with an invite.
https://m.facebook.com/NavyRecruitTrainingCommand/
2nd - When you get your form letter from your SR it will have his mailing address and the date of his 1st scheduled PIR, pluss a bunch of other info.
Go to fb and search for PIR & that date listed. Example " PIR 04-29-16 "
Hope this helps... :)
