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."

Thx Lyn well he wont be going out to sea on the Miami anytime soon since it is in dry dock for a year or so. But I guess the could send him out as a rider on another boat and for that I hope they give him some notice

My son goes on terminal leave at the end of May. So,then we start the next phase of his life.
Notification for promotion varies with each rate. My son is a Nuke and so things are very different for them. the are for the Coners are promoted depending on how many spaces are available. They often have to take the test a couple of times before they get that promotion. Considering your grandson's rate, he will definitely need to go to sea to get his Dolphins. I just hope they give him a decent amount of notice before they send him on a ride along.

Lyn - my grandson is an ST. He tested for his E4 in March, do you know how long it takes for them to hear the results?

Hi Lyn, Good to see you're still checking in. I think about you in appreciation for all the help you've been to me. Is your son still active?

Nana Donna, Your grandson can start working on his Fish while he's on the Miami. But he will have to do a ride along with another sub in order to get his Dolphins. There are items that can only be signed off while they are at sea. What is his rate on the Miami? Lyn
