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!

Love the name! How does this work.... Do we have a format.... And send you our recipes?? Also would like to buy version one and two.
Comment by Lisa-Chris's Mom on February 9, 2011 at 6:20pm

Carol, are both companies able to do the "binder"??

 

And I also LOVE the title:)

Comment by bonlia on February 9, 2011 at 5:22pm

I like the Title also.  Are we able to have pictures in the book as well?  To go along with the title check out these of "Keen Sword 8" where the US fleet stationed in Japan joined up with the Japanese fleet for a week of joint exercises.

Linda, Thank you!  Your hard work to put this together is appreciated!  Love the title! 

If we typed the recipes ourselves, would we have to provide any of the artwork to? Just curious about that part - is that included in both A and B prices? 

Just a thought. . . .  

Comment by DCT MOM on February 8, 2011 at 10:51pm
Like the title. 
Comment by carols_kitchen on February 8, 2011 at 10:13pm
Did you get a copy of each company's book to check the quality?  I personally would not use a CD of the cookbook, but that's because I don't like the computer in the kitchen.
Comment by carols_kitchen on February 8, 2011 at 9:43pm

Like the title!  Just saw the Navy ad that we cover 5 oceans and many continents.

I'm no good on picking companies.  I'm confused, tho, what "b" cost per book would be.

Thanks!

I have also created many cookbooks for my girls and as shower gifts.  The recipes shared are always the best ones.  I would love a copy.  Please let me know how I could purchase one and share recipes for a new one.  Jeannine

What a great idea!  I actually have saved recipes for both my kids.  I am in the process of putting together a small recipe book for each of them.  Of course who knows when Weston will get his?  But at least all of his favorite recipes will be in one spot for him. 
Comment by Anita B. (Josh's Mom) on January 29, 2011 at 11:07pm
I have the first two copies and would love a binder one.  Let's make one and I would like to contribute to it.  So many great NAVY MOM recipes with comments about sons and daughters of the Navy.
