The Social Media Operations team was created to facilitate DoD’s participation
in online and social media communications. Our team manages a number of
platforms, including this blog, that enable commands and organizations
throughout the services and DoD to provide information about their missions
and activities to service members, their families and loved ones, and the
American public.
In addition to supporting established ways of talking with DoD stakeholders,
the Social Media Operations team also serves as an incubator for new
communication tools, continually seeking additional means of providing
information in a way that is transparent and enables audience participation.
Our team is always available to discuss emerging technologies and assist
public affairs officers in incorporating social media and newly emergent
tools into their communications activities. Contact us at newmedia@dma.mil
or (301) 222-6254. The Social Media Operations team is part of the Defense Media Activity,
which operates a number of information tools, such as The Pentagon Channel,
the American Forces Press Service, “Stars and Stripes” newspaper, the
American Forces Radio and Television Service, and also hosts hundreds of Web
Sites for the Department of Defense and the military services. DMA is a field
activity of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public
Affairs.
