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."

It was a great time at the NSI dinner. I will put up pics when I get them. They upped the PRT minium. The average on the first test was good low. Average on the last test was excellent medium. Master Sergeant got them in shape! There were three PRT drops IRRC, one in the last week before graduation. PRT--nothing to be taken lightly. Class average was 92.3--everyone was ranked. One to ninety five. Lee's worst grade was in Engineering--he's a Nuke! LOL. He was ranked very high and did very well, as they all did.
Dinner was at the Atlantic Beach Club in a "ballroom" on the water. Buffet style with seafood, chicken with pasta, Turkey tenderloin stuffed with dressing, Prime Rib, Caesar Salad, Asparagas, Rolls, dessert, cash bar, etc.
Some of the OC's celebrated afterward with cigars!

I remember Brady was in Europe and every time he called he was said something similar to "I can't even enjoy london cause i'm so nervous" or "Ireland is gorgeous. To bad i'm nauseous with anxiety." hahaha but they had waited well over a month for the results that a normally posted in beginning of Oct. It was well in to Nov when they were released (Obama wouldn't sign the defense budget).

I'm just not looking at the calendar again until at least...November! That will serve two purposes; first deployment will be behind us and we will be that much closer to the results!
That airwarrior.com site --- has some awesome information.

Waiting for the results are so terrible, Brady was on edge every day. I'm so glad I get to see him when i'm done with my internship in 2 weeks.
