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."

Jean, I would like 3 of the orange scarfs. You are very thoughtful in making the scarves for us. Which meet and greet will you attend? I have not quite made up my mind but it most likely will be Sarge's.

I am going to Sarge's meet and greet. There will lots of information to be told and I even heard there was going to be someone from the base to talk. What to do if your SR stays at Great Lakes for A school or leave the next day for his/her A school.

Jean, I would love to have 4 of the scarves. Not sure about the meet n greet yet! Probably will go to sarges as I have alot of questions about A school. Thanks for sharing.

We have a lot of questions about A school too.
-
-

I know they have something on this site about A School, but every time I start to read it I find something else interesting. I guess on the drive upthere for PIR I will finally get to read it.
We will be staying at Mariott Courtyard maybe we could plan on meeting before Sarge's Meet and Greet. I plan on arriving on 2-1.

Meeting up is a possibility depending on when we arrive - hope the weather is clear. Hopefully arrive 2/1 also. Don't forget to use the password from the form letter and download your gatepass up to 11 days before PIR. I almost forgot! If we don't have the gatepass I'm not sure if they will let us in. We hope to be at Sarge's weather permitting!
