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."

Hopefully you are all ready for a journey to remember. AG school will be tough at times but well worth it. Never know where he will end up after that. For us a little over 4 years finds our sailor in Japan for 3 years and is currently deployed till mid April. He leaves a wife and infant in Japan. Hopefully they will get to the states this Spring or Summer before he takes off again. Home is wherever the Navy sends you. :)

My daughter will be going to school for AG. She ships to boot next week, so should be arriving in MS in January sometime.

My son enjoyed it. Said it was hot. He was there June to Oct. It should be cooler for your daughter. What rate (job) is she?

Hello all! I too have a son that will be attending A School in Biloxi for AG. He arrives in a few week. I understand that sometimes they have to wait a bit to start in order to "class up". I can understand this since it apprear's to be so few AG's in the navy. My hubby and I will be in Mississippi for part of March and April to hang out with our son on the weekends (when he is finally able to) Any other AG family members going to be there during that time?
