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."

Cookbook status
Please note: In 2012, Linda, this group's creator, did a heroic effort and created a cookbook of our recipes that was sold to members as a fund raiser for Molly's Adopt a Sailor Project. That cookbook is no longer available. If anyone would like to volunteer to start another cookbook-publishing project, that would be great!

Hi Linda,
I don't have a preference for having or not having my last name listed. Please feel free to remove my last name "LeBlanc" if that will make the listing consistent with others. Thank you again! Jeannine

Is there a place where we can see the type of book it's going to be? And, I know you said you were going to send a message to us about our sailors ships - if you did, I missed it, so just in case..... he's on the USS George Washington - the Navy's only full time forward deployed aircraft carrier - stationed in Japan. Thank you again for ALL your work! :)

Linda, I sent an email using the snipemom208@yahoo.com but it bounced. I, too, need to know how much the cookbooks cost and the shipping charges so I can place my preorder and mail a cashier's check. Thanks!
