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 wish I could help this time but am unable to. We are getting our house ready to list and are moving at the same time!! Hopefully life will settle down in a couple of months and I can get back into the swing!
Not to worry, dearie!!! That's the beauty of "Molly's"........we all do what we can, when we can...........and darn if it doesn't all work out!
Thank you and hugs!
This is a very mixed group. All different rates!
We are in. We will be making home made cookies as I need so room in my Molly's closet. The red and green Folgers coffee containers are perfect for keeping the cookies from crumbling but take up a lot of room. And at Christmas time they look great with a bow on top. I still have pillow cases in my done box not sure how many but I know we are good for at least 15 more if needed.
21 DAYS AND COUNTING......
