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."

Here is the link. Not sure if this site always posts the ceremony, but they have been since the pandemic. It's a public FB group that you can join. I also belong to a private FB group for EOD as well. Here is the Navy one that posts the videos.

Yesterday was the big day. Pinning ceremony at Eglin. Sad to not be there but it was taped and put up on the organization's FB page. Next up, Jump School. 2 1/2 years and he finally has a rank on his uniform. That certainly deserves a Hooyah! Hope all are doing well as your sons follow this journey. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
