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."

Ladies.....We are having a working Meet and Greet here in the Sacramento area on July 28th. We are working on pillowcases for the Wounded Warrior project. We would love it if you all could join us for a fun day of sewing ( you don't have to sew to attend there are lots of things for non-sewers to help with), visiting and of course eating. Just go to the Northern Calif group and look under Discussion's and RSVP. We look forward to seeing everyone.
