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!

I received my books yesterday, they are great looking! Now, I only wish I would have shared more recipes. They are doing one for the USS Enterprise, so I will be adding more to that one. Since Diego is serving on her for her very last year, it will become a treasured keepsake from all the families!
