We know how much you care about your Soldiers and want as much information about their travel status as possible. Statements such as "my Soldier's flight left Iraq today", "Does anyone know when they are landing stateside?", "my Soldier landed in Germany today, he will be home in two days!", etc, can compromise security and potentially put your Soldier in an unsafe situation. Please remember to post general statements or questions and if you need specific information, contact your FRG Leader, the Battalion Family Readiness Support Assistant at 655-1823 or Rear Detachment at 655-9924. Do not discuss deployment, redeployment, R&R, or other similar information that has dates/times of troop movement, locations, etc. Sensitive statements such as those, should never be posted on any type of social internet forums or web enabled discussions (i.e. FACE-BOOK). Even if it seems innocent, it may violate your Soldier‟s safety and the safety of others.

THE SAFETY OF YOUR SOLDIER DEPENDS ON YOU!

Page 2 Golden Dragons Weekly Binder

What’s OPSEC? OPSEC, also known as Operational Security, are the principles that we should all abide by when talking about our

soldiers. If you've been on any military related message board on the internet, you have more than likely seen a warning to be sure to

practice OPSEC. This means protecting the information you know about your Soldier and his unit.

DEPLOYMENT TICKERS: Many Family Members like to use deployment tickers to count down their Soldier's deployment. Never have a ticker that shows XX days until he returns. This gives away critical information about redeployment and lets others know sensitive information. Planes have been known to be delayed for days or weeks because information such as this, was made public by an excited Family Member.

Always abide by the rules set forth by his unit and remember that seemingly innocent comments or posts could be used by terrorists or

media organizations to negatively affect the military... Just because it is on the news does not mean that you can talk about the issue. By talking about it, you are only verifying the information. For your own personal safety, be very aware of what you are putting on the internet. We ask

that you remain aware that online websites and social media are NOT

secure and ultimately, the safety of your Soldier, can depend on YOU!

For more information about the Do’s and Don’ts of posting on social media, check out article on army.mil: http://www.army.mil/-news/2011/04/22/55381-net-threats-knowing-the-dos-
