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."

Birdie....When is you new grandchild due? Need to figure out when we should get together to start putting it together.
Cookie exchange could be interesting. Please let me know when. My December gets pretty booked up early, so once you sent a date let me know and I will see if I am available.

Birdie....Play on words. Birdie from Lincoln sewing for the Lincoln. Go Zebras!
I have 10 more pillowcases to finish up for Alaina. Hope to get those done tonight, so I can move on to the recieving blankets I want to donate to St. Vincent DePauls by the first of Nov. I have 8 blankets made so far and have more material to make about another 10.
Do you hear my machine going late at night and early in the morning before I go to work?

Birdie, so you are sewing for your son's ship (like Alaina). Cool!
Well, Happy Hump Day everyone!!

Tee, my son is on the USS Abraham Lincoln, VRC-30 air wing attachment. The cookie exchange is something my husband and I do for our friends. It's really a lot of fun.
Hope you can make it.
Anyone interested, PM me your e-mail address and I'll send you the e-vite when we come up with a date. My husband works a really screwy schedule, so I have to find out when he'll be off.

Birdie, what is your group again? It would be nice to get together in Dec....but with me it's the ol'anxiety I have to fight.
Linda, Paymaster was definately looking for you for ironing purposes, but it sounds like she's superwoman to me!!

Linda...Sorry your feet still hurt. I was thinking about your this morning as I was doing my ironing of the pillowcases I have been working on for Alaina at 0530 this morning before work.

We usually have a cookie exchange in December. Anyone interested in coming to that?

The last M&G planned is Nov. 14th. Do you want to do one in Dec.?
-
-
It's Tuesday....not much to say about Tuesday. My sailor leaves for his next duty station real soon. He's VERY happy about that, so of course I am too.
I hope you all are having a great week. BTW, is anything planned for a M&G for December?
