Rhumb Lines: Responsible Use of Social Media, September 16, 2010
This issue of "Rhumb Lines" discusses guidelines for "safe and responsible personal use of social media"--specifically privacy and operations security concerns related to the use of social media sites in a military environment. Aggregation of information is one of the primary concerns addressed. From the document: "Since social media has been authorized under DTM 09-026, it has given Navy personnel the ability to instantly communicate with service members, families and other stakeholders. In turn, those people can now share information with their social groups online. While this interconnectivity has obvious and significant benefits to our deployed forces, it does come with risks. Information not intended for public release can be quickly distributed, and adversaries can collect information online to piece together a more comprehensive picture of someone's life, a ship's routine or a command's mission. To mitigate these risks, it is critical that we educate our personnel and families on how to safely us social media."

U.S. Navy's Vision for Information Dominance
"We have entered a new era. Globalization and the exponential growth in computing and communications capabilities have transformed the information environment from an enabling medium to a core element of warfighting capability, for both the U.S. Navy and our adversaries. Those adversaries, particularly al Qaeda and the Taliban, have skillfully applied information operations to achieve a temporary, asymmetric , tactical advantage, imposing tactical, if not strategic costs on US and coalition forces. Potential state and non-state adversaries are investing in capabilities to fight in the information domain and hold at risk our network dependent command and control capability. Indeed, on a daily basis, our nation's cyber networks are being relentlessly assaulted. Some even argue that we are already in the early phases of what will be a prolonged cyber war."

U.S. Navy Climate Change Roadmap
"Climate change is a national security challenge with strategic implications for the Navy. Climate change will lead to increased tensions in nations with weak economies and political institutions. While climate change alone is not likely to lead to future conflict, it may be a contributing factor. Climate change is affecting, and will continue to affect, U.S. military installations and access to natural resources worldwide. It will affect the type, scope, and location of future Navy missions. The Navy 'Climate Change Roadmap' outlines the Navy's approach to observing, predicting, and adapting to climate change by providing a chronological list of Navy associated action items, objectives, and desired effects for FY [fiscal year]10-14. […]. This 'Climate Change Roadmap' is intended as a companion document to the Navy Arctic Roadmap of 2009, and its focus areas include: (1) Strategy, policy, and plans; (2) Operations and training; (3) Investments in capability and infrastructure; (4) Strategic communications and outreach; (5) Environmental assessment and prediction Navy action items and objectives within this roadmap are intended to achieve the following desired effects: (1) The Navy is fully mission-capable through changing climatic conditions while actively contributing to national requirements for addressing climate change; (2) Naval force structure and infrastructure are capable of meeting combatant commander requirements in all probable climatic conditions over the next 30 years; (3) The Navy understands the timing, severity, and impact of current and projected changes in the global environment; (4) The media, public, government, Joint, interagency, and international community understand how and why the Navy is effectively addressing climate change; (5) The Navy is recognized as a valuable joint, interagency, and international partner in responding to climate change."

Statement of Admiral Gary Roughead, Chief of Naval Operations, Before the House Subcommittee on Defense, Committee on Appropriations on 11 March 2010: Navy FY 2011 Posture Statement
"Chairman Dicks, Representative Young, and members of the Committee, it is my honor and pleasure to appear before you, once again, representing the more than 600,000 Sailors and civilians of the United States Navy. […] When I signed our Maritime Strategy with General Conway and Admiral Allen more than two years ago, I was confident that the strategy would prepare us well for the current and future security environments. Since then, it has guided our operations and investments, and I am further convinced of its relevance to our operations today and of its enduring attributes. The 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) validated the underlying principle articulated in the Maritime Strategy that preventing wars is as important as winning wars. The QDR also declared that U.S. security and prosperity are connected to that of the international system, that deterrence is a fundamental military function, and that partnerships are key to U.S. strategy and essential to the stability of global systems. These themes reinforce the tenets of our Maritime Strategy and the six core capabilities it identified for our maritime Services: forward presence, deterrence, sea control, power projection, maritime security, and humanitarian assistance and disaster response (HA/DR). My priorities for the Navy remain unchanged: to build tomorrow's Navy, to remain ready to fight today, and to develop and support our Sailors, Navy civilians, and their families. We are making progress in these areas thanks to your continued support. Some highlights follow."

Navy Command Social Media Handbook
"Effective communication has always contributed to unit and mission success. In today's more connected environment, talking to and engaging with your audiences is absolutely essential. During the recent flooding in Millington, the base commanding officer and his staff effectively used social media as part of their approach to understand and respond to questions and concerns, which significantly contributed to their successful response. During Operation Unified Response, commanders of participating units used social media to communicate their units' and their Sailors' contributions in responding to Haiti. Social media is an effective channel to communicate relevant, aligned, and targeted information to the stakeholders that we want to reach, including some we have had a hard time reaching before. As with the advent of other communication technologies -- phone, fax, email, websites -- we must exercise caution to use these tools safely and effectively, and we must educate our Sailors and families to do the same. This handbook was put together by the Emerging Media Integration Team at CHINFO [U.S. Navy Chief of Information] and is intended to provide you with the information needed to more safely and effectively use social media. This handbook is not intended to be a comprehensive guide on command use of social media or take the place of official policy. The information in this handbook is a useful guide for navigating a dynamic communication environment. I hope after reviewing this handbook you're better prepared to use social media as an effective channel to share your command's story."

From the Sea to the Stars: A Chronicle of the U.S. Navy's Space and Space-related Activities, 1944-2009
From the introduction: "The operators of early Navy ships, like all seafarers, depended on accurate observations of the moon and the planets, along with the sun and other stars, for navigation when sailing beyond the sight of shore landmarks and navigation aids. The Naval Observatory, established in 1830, worked to improve the knowledge of heavenly bodies by computing and publishing their accurate positions and movements and developing improvements in the equipment (including chronometry) used to make accurate measurements of them--a precursor to the Navy's engagement with artificial satellite applications a century and a half later. This book tells the story of the U.S. Navy's first half century of space and space-related activities to support its sea, air, and land-projection operations. Much of its satellite capability was acquired jointly in cooperation with the other military services and agencies of the U.S. It is important to note that the United States does not at this writing have either spacecraft-based weapons systems or plans to acquire them (and if it did, that their acquisition and operation would very likely come under the Air Force rather than the Navy.)"

Naval Operations Concept 2010: Implementing the Maritime Strategy
"Naval Operations Concept 2010 (NOC 10) describes when, where and how U.S. naval forces will contribute to enhancing security, preventing conflict and prevailing in war in order to guide Maritime Strategy implementation in a manner consistent with national strategy. The term 'naval' and 'the Naval Service' are used throughout this publication to encompass Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel and organizations. NOC 10 describes the ways with which the sea services will achieve the ends articulated in A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower (CS-21). Published in 2007, CS-21 described a set of core capabilities that added maritime security and humanitarian assistance and disaster response (HA/DR) to the traditional forward presence, deterrence, sea control, and power projection. NOC 10 does not prescribe Naval Service tactics, nor is it doctrine. Rather, it serves as a precursor to the development of both. It describes how the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard operate together, and will be complemented by Service-specific concepts. Collectively, the ideas put forth are to be applied, tested, analyzed and refined through war games, exercises, experiments, and operational lessons learned. This innovation will ultimately inform future revisions of the NOC, as it is updated to remain relevant in the evolving security environment."

Information Dominance: The Navy's Initiative to Maintain the Competitive Advantage in the Information Age [transcript]
"I would like to take this opportunity, as I've said, to talk about what I think are some rather significant moves we're making within the Navy to better man, train and equip the United States Navy for the fight that we're in and for the challenges that we're likely to face in the future. I came into my current position having spent the past few years with the operational forces of the United States Navy in the Atlantic and in the Pacific, in joint positions and in Navy positions and it was in that period of time that I had a wonderful vantage point on the uses of information, particularly in an operational sense. How we gathered it, how we processed it, how we managed it, how we exchanged it, and most importantly how we then tried to use it. I also have had the insight recently of being able to make several trips to Iraq and Afghanistan to see how particularly, in the area of special operations, that we have been able to fuse information and intelligence into operations in ways that we have never been able to do before. […] And, it became clear to me and this idea really has been germinating now for about three years that we really needed to transform our strategic concepts, the institutions, the organizations, the capabilities and the processes, and I think possibly most importantly our culture. If we as a Navy are to remain dominant in this information age, this cyber age, or whatever moniker you choose to put on, I think that we have to take advantage of the new opportunities that exist such as the vast stores of collected data. Information and intelligence that often lie at rest, unrecoverable, unavailable and untapped. To take advantage of the ability to filter, to analyze and then disseminate that information and to leak that information, the appropriate information to either kinetic or other decisive effects in real time."

Establishment of Designator 1810 Cyber Warfare Engineer
"This request outlines the requirements for a separate Cyber Warfare Engineer designator. In August 2009, as means of addressing the increased demand to repeatedly access and deliver Officers with specific Computer Network Operations (CNO) focused knowledge, skills and abilities the Chief of Naval Personnel has directed the establishment of a Cyber Warfare Engineer designator modeled after the existing Nuclear Power School Instructor (1210) and Naval Reactors Engineer (1220) models. a. Designated as Cyber Warfare Engineers in the ranks of Ensign, Lieutenant Junior Grade and Lieutenant, these officers will serve in billets where specific Cyber Warfare expertise is required throughout their five year minimum service requirement (MSR) . Though over time, specific duties will likely evolve to support a growing mission area, initial employment will be focused on CNO capability/tool development under the purview of FLTCYBERCOM [Fleet Cyber Command]. Officers are selected for a Direct Commission based on outstanding technical academic records in the field of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering and other Information Technology related degree programs. Upon completion of their five year MSR, Cyber Warfare Engineers will be encouraged to laterally transfer into another community within the Information Dominance Corps (Information Professional (1600), Information Warfare (1610/1640) or Intelligence (1630). If not interested in continuing Naval Service, Cyber Warfare Engineers will be encouraged to seek employment in a Department of the Navy civilian capacity, furthering their contributions to the Navy's Cyber Warfare mission area."
