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."

Thanks to all of you for sharing your letters, still no letter today. The battlestations info was great because we are driving from texas and it looks like snow the entire way, so we are actually leaving on tuesday after the kids get out of school. So now I can make sure that we are in an area where we get cell phone service around 2pm central time and not miss the call. Your info is truly invaluable so thank you all very much!! I have read alot of info on bringing more people than are on the list and i'm not sure what to do now cause we weren't going to bring our two youngest children but now we have no other choice. They are 11 and 13. Does anyone know if they would have to wait to see if there is room and could they possibly be seated in a different area. I can't have them waiting in the visitors hall without me and i've been reading all different answers but I haven't seen anything about if the extra guest are children. I would be greatful if anyone has info on this. Trying not to have anxiety attack this close to graduation.

@BobbieChris - I'm having a great evening too. I just booked my flight. I'm flying into Milwaukee and since my cousin is coming with me I decided to rent a car for her to drive Miss Daisey around. We'll have plenty of time to kill. We arrive at 7:30 am and won't be able to check in until 4.
@Ginny - I'm sorry to hear you won't be at the meet 'n greet, but I know this is going to be a fantastic 20th anniversary celebration for you and hubby.

I am looking forward to next week! My son's usual letter did not arrive today, but last week it did come on Friday, so I hope to get one tomorrow. After the first couple of PITIFUL letters, things seem to have gotten better. His letters are getting funnier and funnier. I am looking forward to the meet and greet. Has anyone checked the forecast?

Yes, thank you so much for sharing your info!!! I visit thus page several times a day! We are flying in late to Milwakee and will totally miss the meet and greet. I was so disappointed when I figured this out. I can't wait to see all of you at graduation though! My husband and I are both coming. We celebrated our 20th anniversary in Dec and are taking this trip as a kind of 2nd honeymoon. We
Would never do anything like this otherwise! We are staying at the Marriott and my husband got a suite, so we are living it up! My husbands little sister and her son are flying up as well and Donivan's youth leader just moved to Chicago a few months ago and she is coming to Graduation too! We are all so incredibly proud!!! I can't wait to share with them all I have learned from you tonight!
