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."

Hi mom's! I am Irene MClure of Buford,Ga. I love Scrapbooking. I have already finished one Navy scrapbook for my daughter Heather.She came home after A-School and before going to Guam. I showed it to her and she really enjoyed it.Now I am working on her second book. I have all kinds of scrapbooks-I have one for each of my kids from birth to highschool graduation. The last page in it is the Gap and Gown with the Tassell. I always order extra tassell's for that reason.My dinning room is my scrapbook room. I have 7 dogs so I did a book on my pets. Trying to finish it now,before school starts back.Everyone knows me by my camera's. I always have a couple of them with me.You never know when you might have a kodak moment.I will be downloading some of my pic's to my page at some point and time.The picture I have showing cut off the rest of my family-so now I have to figure out how to change it. anyway. I'm glad to be here.

Hi ladies, I decided that this is as good a time as any to learn a new hobby and so I've decided to learn scrapbooking. This is a new hobby for me and I hope I will learn a lot of wonderful tips. Can anyone recommend a good site or book for a beginner?
