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."

Sir/Ma'am,
Thank you for making the Ohio State pillow case. I am currently deployed and getting something to remind me of home in Northeast Ohio was a great gift. Keep doing what you do for service members deployed across the globe as they all very much appreciate it.
Vr,
Ryan N2A Amphibious Squadron FOURI'm not sure which one he got as I spot 3 Ohio State ones in these photos

here is a great thank you note and 1 of the
reasons I still do this even though my sailor left the navy in
2011:Good day to you fantastic Americans!!
I just wanted to reach out and express my gratitude for the cowboy boot pillowcase I received from my friend Hector who got them from your organization. You are some great people and we really appreciate what you do!!
I actually just got a new pillow and was ready to put a t-shirt over it when I saw the pillowcase on my bed.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Char, Anny, and Kathy!!-dave (he's a marine on the Iwo Jima)
Those 3 gals are local sewers and Kathy is a grandma to a marine. She was very happy to get that note.; It is in the top row, middle with a teal cuff and red flange:
