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."

Eagle Mom....No I didn't know that. I will put that down as something that I learned today!

My son fly's a sh-60/Blackhawk.

Jm....I will send you my fax number.

Eagle Mom.....The pattern I am really after is a helocopter. If you ever come across one I would be interested.

Paymaster do you have a fax machine? I could send it to you that way. Send me a private message with the information and I will get it out to you. Along with the mystery quilt pattern if you are interested.

JM....Would you share the airplane pattern?

I love the blue quilts, all of them, but I am yet to make one.
Comment by JM-ISmomx2 on March 12, 2010 at 11:12am
Paymaster the airplane was a pattern. I just appliqued the airplanes, hearts and star parts. Funny things about the blue one, it is my favorite quilt so far.The blues and seafoam green blends turned out so pretty, if it hadn't been for my sister's 50th I might have kept it. And if anyone has mystery patterns they would like to share I have several.

JM....Did you paper piece your airplane baby quilt or was it a pattern? I have a son that is a pilot and would like to make a quilt for him.

The quilts are beautiful. Of course I am pulled towards the blue and with because I love those colors.
Comment by JM-ISmomx2 on March 11, 2010 at 7:54pm
No actually that is the only part I didn't do. I will leave that part to those with the $30,000 computerized machines. And yes they did a beautiful job. The 1st one was done with verigated (sp) multi colored thread and was amazing. Not as easy to see on this picture.
Comment by JM-ISmomx2 on March 11, 2010 at 7:14pm
The 1st one is a sampler quilt belonging to my sailor, then a baby quilt for my nephew, last was a mystery quilt I made for my sisters 50th birthday.
