Learn how Navy Special Operations Foundation is helping Navy EOD operators and Navy divers get the support they need to thrive in and beyond their military service.
One of the pillars here at NSOF is ensuring that the men and women that have served their nation in the Special Operations community are given the best chance at successfully transitioning into the next chapter of their lives.
Petty Officer Roddy was most recently assigned to the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit in Norfolk, Va., where he resided with his family. He was deployed to Iraq in June 2006. On September 16, 2006 he was killed in the Al Anbar province, Iraq by a bomb that detonated as he approached it to dismantle it.

Navy Special Operations Foundation is the only organization exclusively dedicated to the Navy Special Operations (NSO) community. Our aim is to keep our NSO families in the fight, and we do so through our four pillars of support outlined in this post.
Operator Reset is the newest addition to Navy Special Operations Foundation's Warrior Care Program. This initiative is designed to unite those separated from the NSO community with Active Duty NSO service members, for the betterment of both.
Resiliency is well known and heavily promoted within the NSO community. The term is continuously used, programs are built around it, service-members are expected to work to achieve it, and the word itself sounds appealing. But how familiar are we with its definition and exactly how do we acquire it?
As we step into 2019 and prepare for our second year, I believe it is important to look back at just how far NSOF has come in such short time.
We are so proud that one of our founding members of the Navy Special Operations Foundation has been chosen to serve on the United States Olympic Committee!
