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 do not think the password changes. The password is something the SR makes up. I have seen this question on the FB page before. They always say the SR is the only one that can give you the password.

That is too funny, I also have any appointment to get my hair done on Wednesday. I was a hairstylist for over 10 years and have not had anyone do anything to my hair other than cuts. I am going to have the whole shabang done. I am excited about that as well.
Well by my calculations it should be sometime within the next couple of days and we should be getting a call hopefully by Thursday....
Have a great day everyone. HOOYAH

I'm really interested in why you think BS is in the next couple of days. If you have info, please message me and let me know.
They don't even start the last week of training until Wednesday. And, I really wonder if BS will be early in the last training week. I suppose it could. Most of the time, BS is after Captains Cup and before PIR. In the last several weeks, they have had divisions do BS before Captains Cup. But I wonder if that's going to happen in our case.
