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."

Just a reminder that we still need 110 pillowcases. So if you are planning on sending pillowcases please let me know how many. That way we can add them to the count. If you aren't sure then just let me know how many you have done so far. I would like to know that every sailor will get his or her own pillowcase.
When do I need to mail them by? I will be quilting next week on Veteren's day and I could make some then. If that is not too late, put me down for 5. I am going to need to know where to send them also.
They look great.
That is fantastic Shirley! How did you do it? I may have to do a few iron on ones myself in the future. Do you just grab the design from online and then do the transfer? Very cool.
Just got a phone call from my niece and nephews day care... they are going to help me decorate 36 pillowcases!!
YAH.HOMEMADE pillowcase, nothing LIKE..home!
I have 30 that I can send.
WOOHOO! ♥
WOW...79 left! WOW!!!!

Looks like we only need 45 more!!!!!
If you are sending pillowcases, please check the numbers above and make sure I have your count right. Looks like with just a little more help, every sailor on the Cape St George will get a pillowcase for Christmas. YES!
Just got an update from our friends at HAE. We now only need 5 more pillowcases to give one to every sailor on the Cape St George.
OK - Put me down for the final five!! I bet I can whip up just 5 more!!
