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'll be praying for all of you with your sew-in. What a blast. I can't make it as we will taking Owen (10 yr old gr'son) to visit our sailor son. It is his fall break, and Adam is helping us to make this happen. He loved going last year, and asked to go again. I will be working 'remotly' via a lap top. I'm hoping to have the bulletins, and other stuff done before we depart. We will leave on the 18th - so I'm sure the 16th will be full of last minute stuff.
I know that you will all have a blast. I'll look for those pictures. ~S~

Katherine.....Thank you for your offer.
Your finished pillowcase will be 21‐1/2 x 28‐1/2” this is “ideal.”
They have asked that it be made of 100% cotton and pre washed. Please remember there are more guys than girls on ship.
Sorry you can't make it up to sew with us, but you will be with us in spirit!
Once you get them done, send me a PM and I will give you my address.

Computer tip for those with poor eyesight.
Did you all know that you can "increase" or "decrease" the size of everything on your screen, by holding down the "Ctrl" key with one finger and turning the little dial on top of your mouse? Try it. I just found out about this little trick and thought I had invented sliced bread.
