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."

Good Morning all. I have some silk chiffon scarves that I have been experimenting with if anyone is interested. I have many colors of chiffon and making flowers to place on. If anyone is interested in having a scarf with the PIR/ ship division/FUTURE Navy achievements and "Proud Navy Mom" Scarf please let me know and I will figure out how to get the embrodery on them?
Here is a picture of the flower and some of the colors. Also the possible text -
