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."

He will have to Phase up before he can leave base for Liberty and it will be several weeks before he can have overnight Liberty. It is usually best to wait about 3 weeks if you are visiting and expecting him to have Liberty off base and about 5 weeks before expecting overnight Liberty. It would be best to ask in one of the groups for his "A" School since although Phasing up is a given at all "A" Schools, it works a little differently at each command. I see you have joined Sailors attending A School in Meridian, Mississippi; you may also want to check out Meridian Mississippi A School family&friends. There are also NAS Meridian Facebook Page and NTTC Meridian Facebook Page. What will his rating (job/specialty) be? There are also groups for some of the ratings that have “A” School there.

He will not be able to have visitors the first weekend he is there. He must go through INDOC first and then will let you know when you can visit.
