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."

I just saw on the news that there are still several people from the apartments missing. I hope that they were just not home and haven't checked in yet. Prayers for everyone involved.

Hi everyone! I am an Independent Scentsy Consultant. If you have never heard of Scentsy you should definitely check it out on my website! It is a decorative flameless and wickless warmer that uses a light bulb to heat and melt scented wax. It is the safe alternative to candles!Scentsy Wickless candles are wickless, flameless, smokeless and lead-free. The exclusive Scentsy wax bar is melted in one of our unique decorative warmers by a low-watt light bulb. Scentsy Wickless candles are safer, stronger and longer lasting than wicked candles There are over 80 scents to choose from as well. I am just trying to get the word out about my little business so please feel free to spread the word! If you are interested in hosting a Scentsy party, purchasing a product, or joining my Scentsy team then please contact me! Thank you so much!
