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."

Donna, the pillowcase project is the group called 'Heads at ease pillowcase project' so find that and go there to join. The 'pillowcase lady' (she's the one that started it), name is Sue Lamberson. I will send you her email addy (although she sends out bulk emails and I'm sure she wouldn't mind me putting it here).

Lynne, welcome. Donna, there is a group that makes pillow cases, not just for sailors, but for all military. I gave $ to them once so I am on their email list. I could give you the info if you wish, just let me know-they do wonderful things.

Part of Justin's division in Whidby Island, WA is going to Haiti for a week and a half. He has not been ordered to go (he's an IT). Yes, God bless them all. My daughter has a friend that is from Haiti that still has family there and her sister just went there a week ago to visit. We've not heard from the friend if her family is okay.
