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."

My son is finishing up with battlestations 21 this morning!! I am a wreck!!!

Thank you so very much, Shirley. I will. and to think I make a large tithe Sunday because we're getting a nice refund. but, as always, I know God will return it ten fold.

WHAT???? Shirley? how in the world did that happen? I guess I'll just go buy cheap stuff at the dollar store then as I got rather bad news today after I had put the question in about the energy drinks...I am not able to apply for the emergency unemployment because I don't exhaust mine until 1 week after I'm depleted. I am scared as he** right now as nobody, but I mean nobody is hiring me and I'm now in school with that commitment. please pray pray pray that something changes this. for quite a few months we'll be okay because of a nice tax refund and my car accident settlement but then just scared. I have this problem of always thinking ahead. terrified to no end here but thankful for what we do have.

does anybody know where to get those 5 hr energy drinks? I want to get quite a few but can't spend a small fortune either. I don't know what they are. are they asking for Monsters, Red Bull, etc?

Its the USS CLEVELAND!!!!!
AND YES Shirley's son Kyle is aboard, so kinda HITS home doesn't it. So please ladies one of our own's ship.
The Chaplain aboard has been a great contact and when asked What particlars do you want for your crew? He did respond...Well I had some of those 5 hours energy drinks and they went like HOT CAKES, SO YES< they are asking for 5 hours energy drinks!!!! Mollys Adopt a sailor is doing pillowcases, Shirley has been a busy beaver "customing" a ton of them. I myself, we bring some 5hr energy stuff and some "regular basic" needs for the sailors, I will also bring some of those white T's....guys on ships REALLY do need them, part of their daily uniform, whether in coveralls or working blues......So come one COME all...come support the USS CLEVELAND oh and PS.
The chaplain also said, that over the holidays another large org. was "supposed' to be sending the ship packages, only the Cleveland received NOTHING...They are coming to a close of their LONG deployment so mailing quickly and swiftly is a MUST!!! So please join us.♥

Thank you Dusty!!!!!....And another KUDOS to Boone for all their Cards and letters to the troops helping in the Haiti aid project♥

Heeeeyyyy....that face off for a cause is at my daughters high school, Boone. I've not heard a thing about it and I'm on the principals email/letter that she sends out every Friday. Brittany hasn't come home and said anything about it either. since Boone's criminal justice magnet student body just did 250 valentines cards for Molly's group, at my request, I'd surely think I would've heard about this. Plus....it's same day as our packing party. I'm still coming to the packing party though. Interesting, very interesting.
