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."

Yea! We got a short letter from our son today. It was dated Sunday, November 28th, but we still have not received a form letter yet.
Sounds like things are going well so far. He said they were still in processing and would not start PT until this week. He also said he will graduate January 28th and should leaves for Charleston, SC on February 2nd (“ish”). He requested stamps and addresses, guess he’s planning to write a lot. ;)
Congratulations to everyone who received letters today. If you haven’t received a letter yet hang in there, when it arrives you will feel great!

KLP6 - I've heard that the gates open around 6:30-45 and in the building and seated at 8:45, ceremonies start at 9:00. If this is different that what others know, I'm ready to learn more.
