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."

These meet/greets at the Ramada - is that a prearranged event for every graduation; does the hotel provide a hospitality room for this event on an ongoing basis? Is there a delegated group/organization who hosts these get-togethers or is it up to the parents coming to that particular PIR to make a plan to get the event together? Anyone out there already been there, done that and can comment?
