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."

Comment by MaggieMay on April 19, 2014 at 4:20pm: Welcome candirad! My son is also ATI, it's been almost 2 years since he graduated A school but he was in P'cola 6 months. I think 6 months is a good time line but a lot depends on how long they wait to class up. It's the Navy "hurry up & wait". Mine then spent another 4 months at C school. Best of luck to your son.

Andrewsmom - Congrats to your son on his graduation!!!! Enjoy this time having him home. Get lots of hugs. Hope he likes his ship and enjoys his job.

Happy Easter everyone! Hope you all have a joyous and blessed day!!!!

Comment by Andrewsmom on April 19, 2014 at 3:08pm: My son just graduated from AT-I A-school on March 28th. He arrived P'Cola on 9/15/13, so he was there a little over 6 months. Although he was told he'd have a 2 month wait for first class to start, it was only about 2 to 3 weeks. He also had about one week wait to start 2nd set of classes. They also had a 2 week shutdown over Christmas holiday. He's actually home now and reporting to his ship in San Diego on Monday. My son liked P'Cola and made some great friends. I wish your son great success.

Comment by candirad on April 19, 2014 at 1:27pm: My son is enroute today to Pensacola to start his A-School for AT. Does anyone know how long for AT-I?

Comment by Lisazship2DIV928 on March 24, 2014 at 5:26pm: Thanks I know it sucked she would have enjoyed that Thanks again :)

Comment by MaggieMay on March 24, 2014 at 5:25pm: Bummer she missed Australia...my son really liked it there. Good luck to both your girls....double Navy fun for you!
