OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

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 will take the other 32 females Sue.  I have a stash of females and I need to move some of them out.  I will go ahead and box them up and have them ready to go whenever you say. I don't have any males at this time or I would offer them.

I will take 30males let me know when you want them.

ladies, this is wonderful!   I would like to mail the week of Jan 30th.  I will ask Cindy and Annie to mail their pcs for this group and I think we have the 1st wave covered.

I haven't set firm dates as yet, waiting for that confirmation from the Chaplain.

I am busy until after the 4th of February. So you can put me down for sometime after mid Feb. I'll make 30 for you.

I'm so excited to be a part of HAE!  My son's PIR is 2/3 so I'm booked solid ...  I will be happy to make 20 for you when I return on the 11th!

I will mail the week of the 30th.

Sue - happy to do general type pcs.  will see if I can get 30 together for mid-Feb.  Let you know if I can get more completed.  But count on 30 from me.  I too forgot what they are called.  Sorry.  Did the chaplain say if they had any special requests that we could stuff the boxes with for the females?  and the guys?  hygiene, etc......

Hi Sue,

I can have 20 or more ready around mid-February. Let me know an exact date.

Thank you,

Terri

 

And I'll take 30 as well.

Ally, which wave would you like to mail in?

tmacsmom, I will have you mail in wave 3 which will be the beginning of March.  I'll post that date once I hear back from the chaplain.

I have asked about special requests, just waiting for a response.  Will  keep you posted and thanks ladies!

Thanks Sue, I'll keep an eye out on the date - hope you're having a great weekend!

Sue, Please put me down for 15 for middle of  February. Will try for more but can't promise right now.
