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."

All I've been told is that they've been having briefs everyday. Other than that they have free time.. so far. Today though (Thursday) and every other Thursday they have to clean their rooms and their building from 1930 to 2130. :)

Haha! Awh :) I can't believe they're being so responsible - cleaning and all! My boyfriend texted me a picture of how he sewed up a hole in his pants!! Whoa =) =)
He said that he's not starting school until next Monday, October 1st. Do you know if that's right or did I misunderstand him? -

My son told me Oct 1 also. But, I'm wondering if that changes their graduation date? Does anyone know?
