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."

Event Description
The Ramada hosts a complimentary meet and greet for all family and friends of graduates each Thursday evening prior to graduation. It is held in their lounge. The Ramada does this for every PIR group as a courtesy, it is free. Those staying at the Ramada will get a voucher for two free drinks and they have a cash bar. They do not mind if you bring in a water or soft drink with you. The RSVP just helps them get a head count so they know how much food to prepare. But I am sure they make a bit extra!

So is everyone going to Sarge's Meet and Greet too? At the sundance saloon. Says that it's from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Seems really cool - but I don't want all of us to be split up!
