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."

marine_navy and 3ds, david said earlier that he'll be finished with ATT on tuesday and they told him he would start AWAT right away and after that he would start I strand...well from what you posted about your kids experiences i just didn't say a word about that 'dream timeline'....
MommyHunt-sounds like there might be a possibility that our kids might end up in AWAT together. he's only a couple of days behind her on the end of ATT.
