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 everyone, I added 4 more most requested recipes. Check out the Kielbasa Dip. It is the #1 favorite. I'll try to add some more by Thursday. It would be great if we got to 300.

Harriet, we always use our debit card even if there is a paypal and haven't had any problems anywhere. So, if ya have one you should be able to use it. Just a thought.
We will be moving next week as well as leaving to go to S. C. for a visit with our Sailor and wife. I will check by in and once I get unpacked with all my recipe and books, I will be able to add more if they are needed. I have so many, I would love to share them.

Will there be an additional way to pay besides paypal? They screwed us so badly that my husband wanted to go all "Marine" on this, kwim? So we don't use them anymore.
