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."

This is my daughters' Navy "GO" quilt I just finished for her. The next picture I am going to post is a close up so you can see the cute sailor pups on the fabric.

Kamile57.....Looking forward to seeing your crafts and quilts.

My aunt was like your mother, she was the total crafter. It was very hard for her when she had a stroke and could no longer her left arm. I feel for your mom.

Grace, thanks to me it isn't, much to my chagrin. It is on the top of my todo list as of tomorrow.
On a happier note, much to my amazement I won first prize for my division for the quilt I entered in the OC Fair.

We are spending a quiet Sunday celebrating our 34th anniversary today. Going out to dinner tonight. Going to a place called Cool Hand Luke's. Its a great little steak place near where we live.

Tomorrow its beer and cake for breaksfast, gigle, gigle, gigle. When we got married we had a huge weeding (400 giest). I have a large family. We spent the night at a loving hotel and then got up the next morning and headed to my parents house for breakfast, because we were leaving for Germany that evening and wanted to visit with all the family that had come from out of town. Well when we got to the house everyone was still up and had not gone to bed yet. No one was in the mood to cook after being up all night (drinking and partying) so all there was to eat was left over wedding cake and beer.

So we always joke about having beer and cake the day after our anniversary.

Hope everyone has a loving day today
