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."

Hi Sue - I cut 10 out yesterday. I won't have time to sew them until next Sunday, but I can have them ready to ship next Monday (3/5) if you can use 10 more for this wave. Or, I can hold them until next time. Annie

Annie, thank you! BUT just hold them cause we are going to finish the ESB with this wave.
I will be posting soon about our "long lost" army unit that we were going to do with the last Marine unit. I now have information on them and we will begin soon.
