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."

1 oz packet onion soup mix
10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup
15 oz can chicken broth
1 packet pork or brown gravy packet
Place pork chops in crockpot.
In a medium sized bowl mix other ingredients together. Dont worry about the clumps too much, they go away during cooking.
Pour bowl contents over pork chops.
Cook on low 3-8 hrs (until tender) mine was 5 hrs.
Thicken sauce with some flour or cornstarch slurry for gravy when chops are done if desired.

Comment by Storymom on October 5, 2018 at 10:57am: Alton's Overnight Oatmeal

1 cup steel cut oats
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup dried figs
4 cups water
1/2 cup half-and-half
Directions

In a slow cooker, combine all ingredients and set to low heat. Cover and let cook for 8 to 9 hours.

Stir and remove to serving bowls. This method works best if started before you go to bed. This way your oatmeal will be finished by morning.
