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."

I have posted below the before and after pictures.  These are the ladies that come together when one of us has a project and help each other out.  My friend Alaina couldn't be with us as her son is just home after being out on the Lincoln.  The other ones you don't see are my daughter, Rach and our neighbor Dawn who were taking the pictures.  Wish all of you that have sewn or sent money to help out could have been with us. We thought of all of you along with all our sailors deployed.

 

We had a alot of good laughs as we packet all of these pillowcases.  We have bets as to which ones will be the most desired.

Thanks!   I just sent my lonely two pillow cases yesterday, the postman said it would be there in 2-3 days, will that be too late?  I have no sewing skills so had a co worker make them and she didn't get them to me quite as fast as I would have liked :)
