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."

We will be individually wrapping each cookie and placing a "Welcome Home" Label on each one!
All cookies will be "carefully" mail to my house and taken up to Jacksonville so that they can be handed out and "consumed" by Dusty's Dogs!
Please email me @ berland1@msn.com or Molly~mgisi@mollysadoptasailor.com
If you are interested and we will let you know the date that the cookies need to arrive in Florida!!!
We would LOVE the cookies to be as fresh and warm as possible!
So if you are able, leave your name and the amount below, I will come in every couple of days and keep a count.
Thanks!
