Hit up skillport, they have tons of SEC+ training slides and an eBook for the 501 course.

SEC+ is normally given half way through the course so you'll have plenty of time to get spun up on networking and computers.

SGT(P) (Join to see) Graduation requirement? That's news to me, it's strongly recommended that you get it in the school house prior to PCSing to your next unit. If you dont have it you're relying on your next unit to send you to retake it. I've had previous tangos come to me without it and I had them study and put in for a test voucher through the school house.

I could be wrong, but someone told be that it has changed. I would love to be a Tango so I am just trying to get ahead so I can be successful in the course and graduate. I will get in top of those skillet courses though.

Look through a few of the 35T forums, gratisexam.com is a website that is recommended. As I see other methods the 35T are using to study, I will post here for you.

I would complete A+ first you haven't already. It is suggested you do A+, Net+, and Sec+ in that order, and IT Fundamentals if you have absolutely no idea what a computer is. The reason for that order is because each preceding cert builds on to the next one (i.e Net+ will build on what you previously learned in A+, but will go more in depth of things like Ports/Protocols.)
But of course Skill Port would be the most obvious answer, not the easiest but it is more in depth. It will be the " SY0-501 CompTIA Security+ " course.
I also suggest talking with others who have completed the course and they may be able to tell you specifically the hard hitting items, and/or give you the training material used in the class (i.e Books, PDFs, Notes, etc). If you don't know anyone that has completed the course, go to your units S6, or other related Intel shop, and ask around because there's a high chance at least one has been through all that.
-Hope that helps, and if you need any further guidance, or wish to know something, don't hesitate to ask!
