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."

Everything Meet & Greet
I started this discussion so we’re able to keep all our thoughts on our meet and greet in one place.
Please share all your Ideas you have for our meet and greet here
*some groups have made buttons; ribbons; worn different color scarf’s ( to identify who you, your division, and who your Sailor is) PIR 8/13/2010 are buying “sailor hats” and each one is decorating their own, I think (I thought that was a cool idea)
*Also if you could please place your name, your SR's first name and the names of who is attending meet & greet with you here, that would be great as well, even if your not attending, I still want to include you in the list below.
The Ramada provides Hot Hors d'oeuvres, but drinks are not included. Drinks are available, each person will be responsible for their own bar tab. If you are staying at the Ramada you will receive a couple of drink coupons.

Hello! We are going to leave tomorrow instead of Wednesday. I bought some supplies, but was wondering how big do you make these ribbons? I was just thinking something kind of small for the lapel.

most make them anywhere between 5-9 in, depending on what they put on them
