Serious games

Article Abstract:

Kill Chain is a software program under development by Symmetron LLC of Fairfax, Virginia, featuring replayable and recordable training sessions, scenario-based simulations which connect recent advances in computer gaming technologies. This could be of great value in training naval officers in tactics, however, owing to failure of Joint Simulation System (JSIMS) and budget situation, the future of Kill Chain and other new computer based simulation programs in the Navy remain uncertain.

New communication system will link marines ashore to sea base

Article Abstract:

The expeditionary tactical communications system (ETCS) is envisioned as a solution for rapidly advancing units to communicate with the commanders ashore. This technology can lead to the development of a flexible, lightweight network that provides reliable communication from the sea base to expeditionary units in faraway inlands.

Got but not forgotten

Article Abstract:

San Diego is taking lots of trouble in preserving the Naval Training Center (NTC) heritage, which was closed in 1997. The Naval Historical Foundation, National University and the San Diego Historical Society have helped the foundation to find people from every decade of NTC's existence to provide oral histories.
