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."

San Antonio Bound! Is there any others?
Looking for others who have a loved one that will be attending A School in San Antonio. My son is to PIR on 12/2/11 and then, head to SA. I love that he will be back in Texas and just 4 hours away from me. Well, at least for 14 weeks....

My son is Ship 07 Division 010. We hope to make it to the M&G, but not sure yet. We plan to drive up on Wednesday with my daughter and son-in-law. If all goes as well, we will be there. We are staying at the Navy Lodge, because it is close for the PIR. I am like you, everything that I have searched has them leaving Saturday. We are hoping that they will get to spend Christmas or at least some time close to Christmas at home. As soon as we get the SAILOR Call, I will post and let you know if he has any information on the departure times.

When I talked to my son on Thanksgiving, he told me that he had to report to SA no later than Dec 12. His PIR is Dec 2. He couldn't tell me what happens between Dec 2 and Dec 12. Can he come home? I also read that SA basically closes down from Dec 18-Jan 2. Does anyone know if they can come home for Christmas? Does he have to pay for the flights himself?
