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."

The USS Mobile Bay is currently on deployment and could use a little Love From Back Home.

We have the blessing of the command and they are looking forward to seeing the Men and Women on the ship get some love from home.

 

We will begin shipping 357 pillowcases starting on the  10-01-2012, I will be doing the command and help out with what ever is needed to be finished.

 

We have 307 males and 50 females, I would like to split the females up into 2 shipments. They will be 2 weeks apart to give the first round time to travel.

 

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE HAE BIG RED HEART IS ON EACH BOX. This will help them to be able to pull the boxes just by sight. If you don't have them let Sue or I know and we will send you the file to print.

Happy too!!  Wish I could do more!!!

thats ok just keep stashing for the next one. Your a great help and you do a great job.

I can do 25 -- either wave.  Let me know.

Let me know if you still need more. I can do 25 in either shipment.

Birdie, we can use the 25 on the second shipment that would be great.

ME

Perfect.

ME -
Will you send us the address we need to ship too next week? Thanks.

Terry, I will be sending out the address, which I actually did on Friday.

ME, please make a change in the wave 1:  Patty B is mailing 45 and I am down to 5 haha.  I will mail last this week just to make sure that all that are committed go.

Yes, I got it.  Thank you.  Guess I wasn't being patient enough!!! :-)

No worries Terry!

Here are photos of pcs mailed today by Patty B

I mailed mine today also.

Dear Sir or Ma’am,

 

 

I just wanted to express my personal thanks to Patty Bagby and the Heads at Ease organization for spending the time to give back to Sailors, Marines, Soldiers and Airmen across the world. There is nothing like a gift, a package or a note from home to remind you that people still care. Your ability to touch everyone at our command also means that today, no one will feel left out that they didn’t get mail. These pillow cases bring a smile and comfort. Thank you for your time and considerations, we could certainly use more great Americans like you.

 

Very Respectfully,

 

LTJG Adam xxxxx

USS MOBILE BAY CG53
