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."

Hello Tucson ladies.  I am hosting a craft fair/fundraiser this coming Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

My Heads at Ease pillowcase project was gifted with a number of really great things that were used in model homes here.  We will be selling them at terrific prices to raise money to send a touch of home to our troops.

 

If you would like to come, pm me for the address.  I hope to meet some of you moms this weekend!
