We hope to receive submissions from all viewpoints, but we ask that all participants agree to the following Terms of Participation:

* Submissions containing the following will be deleted:

o Operational Security (OPSEC). All personnel (including families and friends of service members) have a responsibility to ensure that no information that might put our military members in jeopardy or would be of use to our adversaries is posted to websites that are readily accessible to the public. Not surprisingly, that information includes, among other things, technical information, operation plans, troop movement schedules, current and future locations of military units and ships, descriptions of overseas bases, details of weapons system, or discussions of areas frequented by service members overseas. Other information that’s not as obvious but should also not be discussed in an open forum includes daily military activities and operations, equipment status, unit morale, and results of operations. Any of these topics, if released in an open medium, have the ability to provide our adversaries opportunities to harm our military members. o External Links (including Advertising Links) The appearance of external hyperlinks does not constitute endorsement by the Texas Military Department of the linked web sites, or the information, products or services contained therein.
