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."

quiltblue - Thanks for the color update

ProudMomma- what do you think colorwise? a few have replied that burgandy sounds good or that a brighter red may show up better in the stands.

ceubank,mom2four, and kayrock, -not sure i've seen a vote from ya'll on the color thing either. what do you think.: )

 

What about a bright blue if y'all don't think burgundy will show up well?
Quiltblue, any color works for me!! Do we buy these in a certain place??
bright blue works for me.
So glad the letters are coming! I see some div in our PIR got calls yesterday so keep ur phones close! So lets vote on the scarf color  Burgandy or bright blue?
Either the bright blue or red.
I like the blue option... :)

Either color works for me. Where do we get these scarves though?

Not sure how others are doing this. I'll ask on their page if one person is buying them to give out at PIR or if they are all getting their own. I'll let you know. Between here and our group page it seems the burgandy is the favorite. I'll let ya'll know how we are gonna get them.
ProudMomma- can you add the Burgandy color to the title of the discussion so other div know what our color is. Thanks!
Done!! :)
