Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 196 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by ksh2012 Loved it This hotel is immaculate, beautiful, and comfortable, and the facilities are wonderful too. I learned at check-in that it was my 100th stay with Starwood, and even though I didn't get an upgrade and had to wait a very long time, the staff made up for it by sending a little something special to my room. We had such a great night and are looking forward to returning soon. Thanks for a great experience! July 11, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by 4jsda Relaxing Family Weekend My family (including our dogs ) and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend here. We had a wonderful view of the mountains, eagle river, and the pool area. *The staff was very helpful and prompt with anything we requested. *I love that this is a pet friendly facility and they offered pet pillows and bowls :) * they have luxury facilities * clean rooms * 1st class service Thank you for a relaxing weekend :) June 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mom21953 One of the best resorts in Colorado The Westin in Avon is a fantastic property with everything you could ever ask for in a location. The riverfront location on a walking path is great, especially if you have a dog with you. The food is wonderful, the staff is very attentive and responsive. It is a great spot to stay in the winter to ski Vail and Beaver Creek as well as the summer to take advantage of all that Colorado has to offer. May 14, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by IzzysMom Great hotel with awesome workout facilities! Overall this hotel was fantastic! My husband and I came for a 4 day getaway and it was exactly what we needed! The spa and gym staff were extremely courteous and the Pilates classes were amazing! The hotel was doing construction on their restaurant but we never heard any construction noise! We were disappointed with the valet staff overall but Neil was always helpful. We would gladly stay again! May 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bacchus Top notch everything We cannot say enough good things about this Westin. We have stayed at this property over 20 times and it seems to just get better with each visit. The staff and the Hotel are always helpful and positive. My wife and I consider it a second home. Just great!!!! Keep up the good work. Thanks to all the staff from Veronica in reservations to housekeeping for the good times and great memories!!!!! February 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Whodat Beautiful Hotel We love everything about this hotel. I have stayed there twice and loved it both times. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room is great. The bed is comfortable, love the dual shower head in the shower, the mini kitchen is great. My only criticism of the room is that there are no jets in the tub. The best part however is the slope side access via the gondola. We will be back! March 7, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by NPR68 Staffing variances Valet/Bell Hop Team (Eugene, Clint, Doug, Matt) all solid as ever. Same group as during ski season that we have gotten to know since we love skiing Beaver Creek. They are all very professional. Some of the pool staff was less than impressive. Summer help I assume. Front desk was fine. Push-back for initial request for a late check-out was unnecessary. New restaurant Maya was good. July 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by UNIPanther89 Excellent Hotel Through and Through The Mexican Restaurant was an incredible culinary experience and the staff at both the Hotel and Restaurant were exceptional. The facility is as gorgeous as the surrounding ski slopes. Although it was a mid point in our family vacation, the kids wanted to stay an extra night and I almost took them up on it. We'll have to come back during ski season. July 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jhancock Great summer mountain retreat This is the second time we have stayed at the Westin Riverfront and it actually moved up on my rating of favorite hotels after this trip. The staff is amazing and super responsive to any of our needs. I loved that they supplied dog beds for my two golden retrievers. And my dogs loved those beds!! The setting is absolutely lovely! Can't wait to come back! June 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Torch2013 Best place to stay in Avon Great location, friendly and great staff for most part. Hotel should notify all occupants that they are dog friendly" and have as many dogs as people on busy weekends. Also pool needs more chairs and more overseeing of area- not up to Westin standards. Rest of hotel. Overall very good and excellent location. Needs to be better appointed to fine details! July 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JohnJudy Great property The hotel property lives up to its Westin standards. Staff is definitely friendly and attentive. The new Lift restaurant is well done and very appropriate for breakfast and lunch. Maya food was good, but staff training and supervision seemed below the quality we usually see in Sandoval restaurants. This is a noisy room in a quiet hotel. July 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by GPTP2014 Great SPG Recognition The entire staff was very friendly and personable. We were recognized as SPG Platinum members and received a very nice room upgrade. We were celebrating our anniversary and received a welcome gift of Champagne & snacks sent to our room. We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite which had a full kitchen which would be very nice for a longer stay! July 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by fg01 takes 20 minutes to get to mountain far from actual skiing the hotel has very nice features cookies at 4pm nice staff help out a lot also many mix ups with ski valet also store had issues, put wanted to buy something we saw in morning on way to slopes asked to put aside with our name on it, which they said they did. guess what. item was not available at end of day when we returned December 25, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jazzy Dog friendly This is our safe choice when needing to get away for a few days. They allow dogs, it's centrally located and has great amenities. This past visit though was not the top notch service we normally receive. The restaurant was closed without our knowledge. To upgrade our room was challenging in itself and the concierge service were not as friendly. June 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by NJSand Beautiful views for a relaxing get-away This hotel was so beautiful and the views were breathtaking. I needed a weekend to check-out and this was the perfect spot. The spa area was warm and welcoming and not overpriced. The Friday night happy hour on the patio was a nice surprise and very yummy. I am excited to come back for another weekend. August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by drpsych Beautiful hotel with great facilities We loved the exercise room along with a quality spa. The equipment is well maintained and overall quality if terrific. The pool area is extremely nice with three great jacuzzis. The concierge staff is first rate--overall-a fabulous hotel--we been there four times and plan on returning again next summer! August 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by car222 Great getaway I've been both during winter and spring. This resort is great anytime of the year. It is somewhat removed from other resort towns but is pretty self sufficient resort. It has a great pool area, workout area, spa and restaurant. A small shopping center is close by and if you need to want, other resorts are fairly close by by car. September 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by mark2den This hotel is amazing Everything about this hotel is superb. The staff is consistently friendly and helpful. Our room was very comfortable and extremely clean. even when a minor complication arose the Guest service Manager Lucas did an amazing job of taking care of us. I would definitely recommend this hotel as one of the best I have ever stayed at. September 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by monkey22 Classy great hotel We always enjoy staying at the Riverfront Westin. The pool, spa and gym are incredible, as are the front desk staff, valets, restaurant staff, bell hops, and concierges. It's our favorite place to stay in the mountains- close to Vail Ford Theatre, Vilar Center, outstanding restaurants and hiking/biking. July 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by EES1980 Amazing property! Everything was exceptional!! The staff was amazing- attentive, warm and welcoming. Room was beautiful, spacious and very comfortable! Really could not have had a better experience! A 10+ on a scale of 1 to 10! Also, Betsy at the front desk was superb! As well as Tony and Mike in valet and Ryan in SE! Best staff all around! November 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by bbally Excellent property great people We were on a second visit and had a great time. The property is running an extended weekend check out special during the summer months. While we did not take advantage of that because we were on a schedule it is a very good program because of the facilities offered on the property. August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by PrincessK8 AWESOME! This was the MOST comfortable Westin we have ever stayed in. The sleep we got was phenomenal. The food was unique and delicious. The staff was extremely helpful, especially Julia at the Concierge desk. We don't ski, but we will definitely be back to visit this great property in a superb location for a ski vacation. December 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cam0310 Outstanding guest relations My wife and I had just finished a stay on the Villa side of the resort and were going to finish our stay on the hotel side that morning. Hayley and Alyse at the front desk were able to find us an available room for immediate check-in that morning. This made for a seamless move and a relaxing day. Thank you! July 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thumper Great Hotel and Resort Stayed for 3 nights for a wedding. Got a one bedroom suite, phenomenal room. Has everything you'll need. You'll pay a significant amount above your room rate in mandatory resort fees, valet parking fees, etc. Got recognition as a Gold Member, still not sure what the benefits for Platinum are, I asked, but they never got back to me. Cima Restaurant is Modern cuisine with a latin twist, you get a discount in the offseason. You can get to the mountain walking, shuttle or take the gondola. Negatives- the gas fireplaces are nice, but they make banging noises quite often. Had a strong sulfure smell the first twenty four hours, but it went away after that. Spa gets booked up quickly, you may want to make a reservation before you get there. The air is very dry up in the mountains, but there IS a humidifier in the rooms. We didn't find ours till the last day. Summary: Great resort hotel, and probably the best value for a resort in the area. Staff are great, very helpful. Very nice restaurant. October 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by ME027 Beautiful Hotel Number one were the VALETS This is your first encounter at the hotel. They were AMAZING! They made our stay fun. The Cima restaurant and waitress were excellent. The hotel is very beautiful. We especially loved the relaxing view from the pool area. We and our two dogs Lola and Abby wish to thank you. May 9, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by JKP27 I have had better stays here Usually the service and accommodations exceed my expectations but there were some things that weren't great. The room had a problem with the air conditioning and it rattled the entire stay. I did report at check out so it could be fixed. Our housekeeper did not replace bottled water each day. I feel like as a platinum (my boyfriend is platinum and his name was on the reservation) that if you can't provide an upgrade, something else should be done to show recognition. The pool required guests to wear wristbands for identification since local members can use the pool area. I feel like the locals should have to wear the wristbands, not the guests! Since there are 3 hot tubs, I recommend that one be designated for adults only. Most hot tubs do not even allow for kids under a certain age to go in, but there were 3 year olds in and out all weekend. I realize this was a holiday weekend, but when you are using premium points, and are at full occupancy, the service and experience should match. July 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by ski3 A Fun Thanksgiving We were happy to have some family time together and our stay here was great. Kids enjoyed the pool and we enjoyed the spa. Nice to have such a large space to feel at home and really appreciated to bring our dog who is truly a member of our family. Staff was friendly and we loved the Maya restaurant! December 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Skidud313 Everything is great except for the fees This is a spectacular property. For not being in Beaver Creek proper, the resort feel that the design creates is fantastic. Rooms are laid out perfectly, very nice fixtures and amenities. But with the resort fee and very expensive parking (even at off-peak times), the fees add up quickly. August 24, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by SpartansRoseBowl Great weekend get away My wife and I visited for our anniversary weekend. We were extremely pleased with our visit. The hotel was maintained very nicely and has excellent views facing Beaver Creek which were really nice to wake up to. The food at both The Lift and Maya was very good, plus Maya has a really good happy hour that we took advantage of upon arrival. The staff was very pleasant and welcoming the whole time. They were also very helpful with any requests. Contrary to other reviews I read, there was immediate recognition of being an SPG Gold member (upgraded room, free drink, etc). The facilities such as the workout room, pool and hot tubs were all really nice, in fact some of the best I have experienced at any hotel. My only complaint, which is rather small, is the bed seemed a little worn out. I personally prefer a stiffer mattress and I felt like i sunk into the mattress and was stuck there. Rolling over was even difficult. Overall, we enjoyed the stay and look forward to coming back for another long weekend getaway. June 18, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by ARB10 Parking We have stayed before and have alsways enjoyed our stay. My biggest complaint is the parking fee. If I stay at your hotel and spend money for the room meals etc I am charged $31.00 per night to park. If I have lunch or dinner and spend a great deal less I can park for free?????? June 25, 2012

USC no match for Stanford women
Updated 10:54 pm, Monday, January 27, 2014
After seeing her team torched by Chiney Ogwumike on Monday night, USC head coach Cynthia Cooper-Dyke summed up what many Pac-12 coaches and players are thinking: "I can't wait till she graduates."
The Trojans tried a lot of people on the senior All-American, all to no avail.
Ogwumike had 30 points and 12 rebounds, and the "duel" of the first- and second-place women's teams in the Pac-12 was no contest.
The No. 4 Cardinal shot 51 percent from the field and committed just seven turnovers, and four other players scored in double figures in an 86-59 thrashing of the Trojans at Maples Pavilion.
It was a game for about 10 minutes. Then Stanford (19-1, 8-0 Pac-12) took control with a 14-0 run that made it 37-20.
USC (14-7, 7-2) beat Cal 77-70 on Friday night, spurred by 34 points by Ariya Crook, a quick 5-foot-7 guard. Beating Stanford is another story.
The Bears get to test their luck against the Cardinal at 8 p.m. Thursday at Maples. How can the Bears give Stanford a real game?
"They're going to have to match their intensity," Cooper-Dyke said. "Stanford plays with a level of intensity right from the opening tip that you've got to match. Then you've to defend their balanced attack. You consider double-teaming Ogwumike, but then you have the three-point-shot onslaught."
Additionally, she said, "You've got to be able to rebound and get out on your fastbreak."
USC couldn't hang with Stanford on the boards, getting outrebounded 42-28.
"I think USC is a definite (NCAA) Tournament team," Stanford head coach Tara VanDerveer said. "This was a big win for us."
Ogwumike is the only Stanford player with a scoring average in double figures (26.9 entering the game). That's not to say she doesn't have plenty of help. It's just that the rest of the scoring is balanced among a posse of players.
Amber Orrange, for instance, averages 9.5 points; she had 12 Monday. So did her backcourt mate, freshman Lili Thompson, who averages 7.8. Mikaela Ruef added 11 points and 10 rebounds, and Karlie Samuelson chipped in 10 points. Crook led USC with 18 points, and Cassie Harberts had 17.
The Cardinal were much more aggressive from the start than they were in their previous game, against UCLA. "That was our No. 1 goal coming in," Ogwumike said, "and playing hard and having fun."
They had plenty of fun all right. They rolled to a 46-28 halftime bulge by shooting 55 percent. Ruef and backup guard Alex Green hit rare threes.
The Cardinal scored 14 straight points to take a 37-20 lead while USC went more than seven minutes without a basket.
That sequence pretty much wrapped up Stanford's 18th straight win and its 13th in a row against USC.

NMEDA Announces New Vehicle Winners for the Second Annual Mobility Awareness Month Campaign
Three "Local Heroes" win wheelchair accessible vehicles
The National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association (NMEDA) today announced the three winners of the 2013 National Mobility Awareness Month campaign. The National Mobility Awareness Month movement educates seniors, veterans, caregivers, and people with disabilities about wheelchair accessible vehicles and adaptive mobility equipment options available to them to live an active and mobile lifestyle.
NMEDA is once again awarding three deserving "Local Heroes" with a wheelchair accessible vehicle tailored to meet their needs through an online contest. Sponsors, Chrysler Automobility, SanTan Honda and Toyota Mobility, are providing the vehicles, which will be customized by NMEDA manufacturers – BraunAbility and Vantage Mobility International (VMI).
This year's winners are:
- Abigail Carter from Lexington, KY
- Jeff Scott from Victoria, BC
- Steve Herbst from Palatine, IL
To qualify as a "Local Hero", entrants submitted either written or videotaped stories of how they are triumphing over their mobility issues through their academic and career ambitions, as well as their family and local community contributions. Caregivers, friends, and family members were also welcomed to submit entries. Submissions were made at MobilityAwarenessMonth.com.
"It has been another great year for Mobility Awareness Month," said Dave Hubbard, executive director and CEO of NMEDA. "We made more than 1.2 billion impressions through the media and social media engagements throughout the campaign and hope that we've helped those in need of mobility solutions find necessary resources. We are equally excited about the 1,225 people entered into the Local Heroes campaign and look forward to how their lives are changed and specifically those of our three winners."
About National Mobility Awareness Month
National Mobility Awareness Month is the annual celebration that encourages seniors, veterans, caregivers and people with disabilities to enjoy active, mobile lifestyles. Founded in 1989 as a not-for-profit trade association, the National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association (NMEDA) supports the awareness month with the assistance of approximately 600 mobility equipment dealers, manufacturers and driver rehabilitation specialists located in the United States and Canada dedicated to expanding opportunities for people with disabilities.

September 4, 2007 Europe's answer to America's DARPA challenge is currently seeking entries for 2008. The Military European Land Robot Trial (M-ELROB) is calling for European civilian entrants keen to test their robot minions against several military scenarios in front of a panel of judges. The aim is to find robotic solutions that can be deployed in the near future to help save soldiers' lives.
The M-ELROB trials are a showcase for state-of-the-art robotics in military settings. The contest, which started in 2006, has teams put their robot creations through a series of tests designed to emulate real-world military and police scenarios in which robots could make a significant contribution in the near future. Robots can be remote-controlled or autonomous, and there may be several ways in which each mission can be accomplished.
America's more established DARPA Grand Challenge, is a driverless vehicle race requiring complete autonomy from the competing vehicles. Although still based on a drive towards advances in robotics for military operations, DARPA also places emphasis on more blue-sky technology - though both projects obviously have the potential to deliver technological advances that will reverberate in civilian life.
The 2008 scenarios will include reconnaissance and surveillance, camp security, transport, mule and explosive ordnance disposal missions. Each entrant will be able to participate in the trial missions, as well as stage presentations of their technology for representatives of military, border patrol, special forces, police, fire and civil protection agencies from all over Europe.
While there will be no specific winners published, an internal ranking system will be kept and each robot's performance metrics on the mission tasks will be made available.
The 2008 M-ELROB trials will be held between the 30th June and 3rd July 2008 in Hammelburg, Germany. Further information and entry criteria are available at the M-ELROB website.Share

Pirate Joe's
A story from the SF newspaper about a Canadian who buys TJ products and carts them across the border to sell in Canada. I think the guy's brilliant, and i really liked the lengths he went to, especially the nail polish!
Here is a link that might be useful: Pirate Joe's
My brother lives in Bellingham WA, right across the border from Vancouver BC. He says that while he likes Trader Joe's, he has to go there during the week because on the weekends it's overrun with Canadians. Likewise the local Sam's Club; the locals in Bellingham have to do their shopping on weekdays. It's great for the county with all the sales tax revenue coming in, but it's a PITA if you want to shop on the weekends.
I think the last year there was a sales tax on food items in Washington was about 1980 :) But that doesn't mean shoppers won't be buying paper goods, cleaning products, gas on their trips to shop.
And every trader joe's, Costco is overwhelmed with shoppers on weekends. It's a toss up, do I go during the week and schlep all my heavy items in and out of the car, or go on a weekend, fight crowds but have DH to wrestle with those big packages. I came very close to leaving a bag of potting mix in the parking lot one time, I dragged it off the stack into the cart and paid for it, then couldn't get it out again and into the back of my explorer when I got outside.

I'm writing for a company a software that sends and analyzes raw ethernet packets using winpcap. I'm experiencing seldom packet loss when the software runs over longer time. My environment is rather bad: a laptop with lots of corporate software including AV that I can't switch off.
I would like to analyze the packet loss problem by reading: (error) counters of the network adapters. What would be the best way to do that in C++ or C#? My best idea was the statistics mode of the winpcap, but it provides too little information. Is there any better way?
Thanks in advance!

Frankly, Marcus Ray has a better understanding of the MIchigan program than any of us random internet people. Who here has a better understanding of the Michigan football program than Marcus Ray? Even if you people disagree with him, seems a little ridiculous to ridiculue his thoughts or say anything derisive. Funny to watch some fans worship a player until he graduates. Or maybe more accurate to say worship him as long has he produces at Tom Brady-esque levels, and otherwise hate on him if he falls on hard times or is in any way human.
If Marcus Ray says it sounds crazy to say Saban may come to Michigan, but that he has some reason to think he will, then maybe his opinion deserves some respect.
Random note: I attended some Scottish Claymore games when Marcus Ray was playing for them. I'm pretty sure I was one of only about three people in attendance at those games. It was like having my own professional sports league.

I live by Bourbon and I've never been happy with the sports bar options around here. I'd suggest Walk-Ons as a good spot. Of course, you can wedge yourself in just about any other French Qtr bar and some have BTN.

|Contrary opinion
As much as I hate Brandon (the Smile Committee thing really did it for me), I don't really have any problem with him being an ass to random internet people who fill up his email inbox with unsolicited rants. These aren't normal, kind people he's having a discussion with. The people writing to him are tracking down the AD to blame him for hiring a coach who most of these people supported hiring in the first place. So the AD isn't more clairvoyant than the rest of the country and all the experts. So what? And just because he isn't willing to axe Hoke doesn't bother me. If we want good coaches to come here, we should treat our current coaches with more respect. Sometimes the fan base, as evidenced on this board, can be terrible. I'll bet that if any of you freaking out about DB now were in his shoes and fielding an endless stream of hate-filled emails, how many of you right now can confidently say that you would respond with total politeness? None of you.
As someone who grew up in Ann Arbor, I took pride in Michigan fans for their general respect for the players, coaches, and team, even when times were tough. And when I went to Texas for undergrad I looked down on them for their vitriol, harsh treatment of players who aren't perfect, and general condescension towards any and every aspect of their own football program. But these days we are just as bad. Maybe if your first Michigan game was in the 2000s you lack a frame of reference, but there was a time when Michigan fans didn't lose their composure and demand perfection.
All that being said, DB should be let go for reasons of actual merit. For having transformed the heritage into a tacky "brand," this is reason enough to show him the door.

NCCOSC Psychological Health Experts Provide Support to Improve Clinical Care
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Story Number: NNS140815-27Release Date: 8/15/2014 8:45:00 PM
By Regena Kowitz, NCCOSC Public Affairs
SAN DIEGO (NNS) -- Staff from the Naval Center for Combat & Operational Stress Control (NCCOSC) trained mental health providers from the Navy's Overcoming Adversity and Stress Injury Support (OASIS) Program Aug. 14 in the use of a psychological survey for assessing and diagnosing PTSD.
NCCOSC instructed providers in using the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS), a 30-item structured interview used to diagnose PTSD and assess symptom severity and help improve patient care. The scale was designed to be administered by clinicians or paraprofessionals, such as specially trained hospital corpsmen designated as behavioral health technicians.
"CAPS is the gold standard in PTSD assessment," said Capt. Scott Johnston, NCCOSC director. "This was a great opportunity to collaborate with OASIS and provide the information and tools they need to standardize how they assess patients and measure outcomes, ensuring that patients are receiving the care that's right for them. It's wonderful that OASIS is getting on the cutting-edge about gathering these kinds of measures, which will ultimately improve how we care for our service members with PTSD and support psychological force readiness."
OASIS, the Navy's only residential care program, is a 10-week intensive program to treat combat-related PTSD in active duty service members who have not improved with outpatient treatment. The program provides an integrative approach to treatment that includes alternative therapies such as yoga, meditation and art therapy along with traditional psychotherapy such as Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). Every patient receives an individualized treatment plan to meet their specific needs.
"The providers at OASIS invest a lot of time in treating their patients and helping them get well over a 10-week period so implementing CAPS, which is a very time-intensive assessment, to get an in-depth understanding of a patient's PTSD symptoms and severity only makes sense," said Dr. Jennifer Webb-Murphy, department head for NCCOSC Research Facilitation and a clinical psychologist, who led the training in administering the CAPS.
Hospitalman Latoya Joseph, a behavioral health technician from OASIS, also attended the training. Joseph assists patients with their daily activities while they're part of the program and helps assess their behaviors.
"The CAPS survey is important so that we can make sure patients are getting the right treatment and that they're supposed to be in the OASIS Program," says Joseph.
"At OASIS, we know our patients are improving based on what they are telling us, but some of the other scales that we are using don't reflect that improvement," said Dr. Lily Tran, a provider at OASIS and former active duty Navy clinical psychologist. "By standardizing our scales, our providers will be able to assess our patients more consistently. We can also make sure that what we are doing is working so that we can continue to do so and expand the program to help more people get well and improve their functioning."
NCCOSC is Navy Medicine's lead in promoting psychological resilience and investigating best practices in the diagnosis and treatment of PTSD. The Research Facilitation Department includes subject-matter experts in clinical and research psychology who work to ensure that mental health providers actively treating service members with PTSD and other stress injuries have the most up-to-date science-based information to implement into their practice.
Providing OASIS with CAPS training is just one of many ways in which NCCOSC supports clinicians to effectively treat combat- and operational-related stress disorders. NCCOSC supports the psychological health and resilience of Sailors and Marines throughout the fleet through psychological health research, program development and anti-stigma initiatives with the ultimate goal of improving mission readiness.
