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."

Rebecca M - I am doing great! Hope you are too~~ I am doing 50 bags this year, but already making plans for what I can do next year by spreading the shopping out and getting my company involved. Hope to offer more next time, but have had a great time shopping and tonight will be working with my two daughters to the stockings all stuffed and ready to ship when Pat says "go!".
Hope we can get together again soon- really enjoyed our lunch!

The smiling sailor is quite misleading isn't he. It's nice to know my son wasn't the only one with a serious face:) wow-Japan. Thanks for the dads info!!! John would like that- he was feeling left out:) or just being a man!!!!!! Have a good day. Andrew has not met Adam yet but he said he would keep an eye out.

From what I understand they need food and some help with child care. this is Melanie Henry's number 404-423-1182 if you can or know anyone that canhelp her. Thanks ladies God bless and have a great day
