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."

I know this might sound like a stupid question but do all the division graduate at the same time at the same ceremony? How many sailors are in one division? That seems like alot of sailors. The Gym must be huge.

yes. they graduate at the same time. Usually its 75-80 SR= sailor recruit per division, We have 10 division PIR 7/8. So roughly about 800 SRs. Then again, some SRs are held back due to health, academic or not passing the PT,etc. hOPE THIS HELPS..
