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."

Comment by Storymom on October 11, 2017 at 11:47pm: Crockpot Honey Chicken (from i❤naptime. com)
1.5 - 2 pounds chicken breasts
1/2 cup soy sauce (I like to use low-sodium)
1/2 cup honey
1 TB olive oil
1 tsp onion powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Sliced green onions, optional
Sesame seeds, optional

Directions:
1. Place chicken breasts in a crock pot. Combine soy sauce, honey, olive oil, onion powder, garlic, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir until combined. Pour sauce over chicken. Cook on low for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken easily falls apart.
2. Serve chicken over cooked rice. Add extra sauce and top with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.

Comment by Storymom on July 18, 2017 at 10:18am: Chex - Snack Mix in a Crockpot?? (16 SERVINGS)
3 cups toasted rice squares
3 cups corn cereal squares
4 cups organic multigrain squares
3 cups pretzels
1 cup roasted peanuts
6 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 dashes chili powder
Pour the rice cereal squares, multigrain cereal squares, corn cereal squares, pretzels and peanuts into your slow cooker.
In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and chili powder.
Pour the butter mixture into your slow cooker and stir gently to coat evenly. Don't just dump the butter mixture into the slow cooker, evenly pour it. This will ensure that there are no "soggy" patches or dry patches.
Place a dish towel under the lid to absorb excess moisture, keeping it from getting soggy. Cook on LOW for 2-3 hours stirring every 30 minutes. Cool before serving. From: naturalchow.com
