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."

Can we still write letters or do we have to wait until new address after graduation. Thought someone said today is the deadline to send last letter.

I just received a letter he sounds great. Battle Stations begins tonight at 8 pm until 7 am tomorrow morning. After Battle Stations they have a capping ceremony and are given their navy ball caps symbolizing they are officially sailors. The phone call home will come tomorrow evening. Good Luck to all.
