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."

I recommend on going to ARHN.com and have an account there. They give you the houses on the bases you're planning on moving to. If its just you, your husband and your child your BAH will be around $1,300 if your husband's A school is in Ct b/c that's what we are suppose to get. But like i said check out that website and browse around :)

It closes than, but that means that classes will be sent to TX earlyer to start school as they aren't going to have students start school up here than finish in TX. Where ever they start is where they finish, I know some of my friends who are instructor at HM "A" School have already moved to start up the new school.

Angie, my Daughters PIR is 2/11. She will be going to A school as a HM. Since the corpsman school is moving to Texas, will she be attending in GLs or will she be sent to Texas following BC graduation?

She will find out when she gets her orders while in bootcamp. Recommend you send her a letter and ask her if she has her orders yet.

Do we have to pay for the plane tickets and hotel stay outta pocket or how does it work for graduation?
