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."

Update
I have received several comments stating that the photobucket account was down and I am going to go back on there and get it updated or see what is wrong. I had several people say that they didn't want to use it. i am going to see if I can find another site to use that might be easier for everyone. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I know that the pictures that are loaded on here stretch out and are very large. I will send out a message as soon as I come up with something.
Hugs to all
Linda

that is awesome dtarmy, a very talented daughter you have as well. My son is also a very good artist. I am hoping when he goes to bootcamp this summer he will get to be one of the recruits who design their DIV flag. That would be so cool :-) I will look for something he has done and post something soon.

Thanks so much for sharing you and your daughters art work Jackie. I have to share my one of my step-daughters drawings as well :-) I love seeing art from such talented young artists. My step-daughter Devon is in AP Art 4 this year (Senior) She chose to do her concentration in Micrography, which is basically creating an image entirely out of text. She has done several pictures and has won an award for one of them but this one is my favorite so far.
