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."

I started a quilt for me so to be born grandson. Its fabrice that my mom made my navy son a bedcovering from years ago. Becuase its been folded and stored for more that 15 years, I am working on blocking the panels square, its been a challenge. Need to really get going on it because the baby is due Oct 1st.

There she goes eavesdripping again. What are we going to do with you EM. Spit it out.
Ok I'll start it. What is everyone currently working on? I am just a few steps into working on my son Navy quilt. Still waining on my daughters to come back from the quilters so I can bind it and add the quilt plate. Oh and I also need to make some changes to the embroidery. Seeems that she has switched squads so she isn't with the one I had stitched into one corner of her quilt. Oh well, just goes to show you can't plan too far ahead. Come on ladies spill. That is what EM is waiting for.

Eaglemom - you have to understand both my sailors will be IS so all we know is lurking. I have been accused of it in other groups too.
Darsete - Andrew really enjoyed himself too. They do hope to get up there again several times before he leaves, either by himself or with Victor. Please tell Jim thank you so much for the help. It should be a great advantage at BC.

Hello Eaglemom. Lurking again? I went to the awards ceremony today at the county fair. Quite an experience seeing your exhibit flash on a big screen as you walk up. Hope you are well ladies, it has been quite in this group lately.

Paymaster, If you posted it recently, it might not have been appoved as of yet by N4M.ad staff. I checked and didn't see it either.
Eaglemom, wasn't sure if it was "I've fallen and I can't get up..... Ha Ha" thought you might be asking for some sort of assistance.

Please go to my page and check out my new picture. Its of my oldest granddaughter with the first quilt she and I made together last weekend. She made it from my scrap can.
