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."

Phoebe thanks for sharing the picture it is totally awsome and I love it when they take pictures like that. I want to thank each and everyone of you for your hard work and dedication to the project. I have a few irons in the fire and will let you know as I find out more.
I recieved and email the other day from our contact on the ship and he said the boxes have started to arrive and all he could say was WOW WOW WOW!! He is waiting for them all to make it before he starts to pass them out.
Also, please pray that I can get these command done, we have been having a lot of lighting storms here in south Florida and its a little hard to run the embroider in the storms. I have been praying to get some clear weather and today I got 2 bands done so there are 2 more to go. Now we got another storm rolling in so please pray that tomorrow and friday will be better.
Thanks Again for Everyones hard work you are an Awsome team.

you are very welcome. I have used this saying for years, especially when working with kids "many hands make light work". let us know what your son says once they are handed out.

they are outstandingly beautiful Maryellen! Thank you for doing them!
Have you had any feedback from the ship on the pillowcases? I remember you said that some had arrived but they were waiting for all of them. Any news?

Nothing as of yet, I did send him a email when I shipped the box but you know how that can go River City sometimes so its just hurry up and wait.
Thank you Sue, sorry it took so long.
