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."

Jan C, I would love the recipe. I looked in the Add your Recipes but could not see it.

I am not the best cook in the world but I remember not long after my husband and I married, he asked me to make meatloaf for dinner. I did and I used the recipe from the owner of the restaurant where I worked. All he could say was, "My mom's meatloaf is better than this." As you can imagine, it was about 2 years before I would make meatloaf for him again.

Anybody here have a favorite pasta recipe?

Louise, yes you can cut the recpe down. You can cut it by half or even by 1/4 to cook just what you want. If you like your chili spicy, just don't cut back on the chilis.

I love to cook but sometimes I just don't get the chance. I work 10 hour days and only have the weekends to do any major cooking except for the holidays. My family says my chili is the best.
I always make a very large pot so that we can freeze some for chilidogs or chiliburgers on other days.
10 pounds of ground chuck
8 envelopes of chili seasoning (any kind will work)
4 cans black beans
4 cans red kidney beans
4 cans pinto beans
4 cans chili beans (hot or mild depending on your taste)
4 cans Northern beans
7 cans chilis and onion and tomatoes
2 cans V8 juice
2 onions chopped and cooked with ground chuck
1 onion chopped for garnish
3 lbs grated cheese for garnish
Cook ground chuck and drain. Saute onion and add to ground chuck. Add all the beans, chili, chili seasonings and V8 juice. Cook for about 2 hours on low. Garnish with onion and cheese. Some of us also like sour cream on our chili.
