MBGIE 2005: The Joint and Combined Multi-Battle Group Inport Exercise Achieves New Level of Excellence in Wargaming Simulation
"U.S. Navy and UK-coalition forces reached a new dimension in virtual wargaming around the globe when they replicated a composite warfighting scenario, Feb. 7-11, 2005, during the Joint and Combined Multi-Battle Group Inport Exercise (MBGIE). This was the first time joint (Army and Air Force) and coalition forces used the Navy's Continuous Training Environment infrastructure and Joint Forces Commands Joint Training and Experimentation Network for training. The NCTE and JTEN enabled real-time battle simulation aboard ships and with Air Force and Army training simulators. The Joint Semi-Automated Forces and Battle Force Tactical Training systems realistically simulated at-sea warfighting conditions."

Design Process for FORCEnet Experimentation
"FORCEnet is the core of Sea Power 21 and Naval Transformation, and it is the Navy and Marine Corps vehicle to make the CNOs vision of network-centric operations/warfare an operational reality. FORCEnet is the command and control pillar that gives speed and agility to the commander. The commander can then optimally employ Sea Strike, Sea Shield and Sea Basing by integrating weapons, sensors, reachback centers and warfighters at all levels into a secure networked, distributed combat force - the Naval contribution to the Global Information Grid (GIG). Navy leadership must have accurate and timely data to make well-informed decisions about future FORCEnet capabilities. The Naval Network Warfare Command (NETWARCOM), the operational agent for FORCEnet, has created a series of annual events to supply these data points. These events are collectively called Trident Warrior (TW)."

Naval Personnel Development Command: Bringing Human Capital Strategy to Life
" At the beginning of the year, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Vern Clark challenged Navy leaders in his 2005 Guidance to develop a Human Capital Strategy (HCS) that would provide the Navy with tools to remedy the imbalances in community manning and retention, revise the ratio of restricted line officers to unrestricted line officers, and adjust infrastructure manning to better mesh with future technologies, concepts and initiatives. The task of bringing HCS to life is the responsibility of many Navy commands that are already working in concert to demonstrate the potential power this strategy will have when brought to fruition. In order for HCS to be successful, it must be incorporated into the Navys Revolution in Training (RIT) and Sea Warrior initiatives, a task that has, in part, fallen to the Naval Personnel Development Command (NPDC)."

USNORTHCOM
"The Department of Defense established U.S. Northern Command in 2002 to consolidate, under a single unified command, existing missions that were previously executed by other military organizations. USNORTHCOMs mission is homeland defense and civil support, specifically: conduct operations to deter, prevent, and defeat threats and aggression aimed at the United States, its territories and interests within the assigned area of responsibility; and as directed by the President or Secretary of Defense, provide military assistance to civil authorities including consequence management operations. U.S. Northern Command plans, organizes, and executes homeland defense and civil support missions, but has few permanently assigned forces. The command is assigned forces whenever necessary to execute missions as ordered by the President. Approximately 1,200 uniformed personnel (representing all service branches) and civil service employees provide this essential unity of command from U.S. Northern Commands headquarters at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colo. Admiral Keating assumed command of the North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command Nov. 5, 2004."

Beyond Iraq
"I'm going to give you a picture about what the U.S. Pacific Fleet is doing beyond Iraq and how we are getting transformation right. Keeping the direction the Chief of Naval Operations has given in mind, I would like to outline some of the contributions that the Pacific Fleet is making to our nations defense. Specifically, how we are working to prevent the development of a strategic void by changing our behavior patterns while concurrently conducting a wide array of missions across the security spectrum. The U.S. Army and Marine Corps remain heavily engaged in Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom - and for good reason. They are doing exceptional work and making tangible progress every day. Our national and military leadership are dedicating tremendous energy to supporting these critical missions, and you see this reflected daily in the media worldwide."

DON IT Umbrella Program Turns 17!
"We are just 17, if you know what I mean! Thats right; the Department of the Navy Information Technology (DON IT) Umbrella Program celebrates 17 years of bringing substantial cost avoidance savings for DON and Department of Defense (DoD) customers. It was June 1988 when the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Financial Management chartered the establishment of the Umbrella Program. In his chartering letter, he delineated the benefits of using a Department-wide acquisition strategy with 'umbrella contracts' to reduce procurement time and costs, achieve substantial discounts and promote cost - effective standardization. These historic joint service contracts successfully brought desktop computing to Navy users. But since that time the number of Navy IT acquisitions has grown exponentially " and increased in complexity " as the DON systematically continues to improve automated business and operational processes, and build a standardized, flexible architecture for tactical and non-tactical operations."

Spectrum Fable: How AESOP and XML Improve Naval Operations
"If you remember what it was like to be a preschooler, youll recall 'Aesop's Fables', short stories with moral lessons passed down from ancient times. However, mention the word 'AESOP' around the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) these days and a tale of Extensible Markup Language (XML) and the electromagnetic spectrum will emerge. And before the day is through you just might find yourself re-examining the tale of 'The Tortoise and the Hare.' The Afloat Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations Program, or AESOP, is a surface Navy spectrum management software tool for managing radar and communications frequencies of shipboard equipment. It is a critical task. Poor spectrum management leads to undue interference that can cripple systems meant to bolster warfighting capabilities like tracking enemy aircraft or jamming enemy radar."

Enterprise Software Agreements
"The Enterprise Software Initiative (ESI) is a Department of Defense (DoD) initiative to streamline the acquisition process and provide best-priced, standards-compliant information technology (IT). The ESI is a business discipline used to coordinate multiple IT investments and leverage the buying power of the government for commercial IT products and services. By consolidating IT requirements and negotiating Enterprise Agreements with software vendors, the DoD realizes significant Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) savings in IT acquisition and maintenance. The goal is to develop and implement a process to identify, acquire, distribute and manage IT from the enterprise level. In September 2001, the ESI was approved as a 'quick hit' initiative under the DoD Business Initiative Council (BIC). Under the BIC, the ESI will become the benchmark acquisition strategy for the licensing of commercial software and will extend a Software Asset Management Framework across the DoD. Additionally, the ESI was incorporated into the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Section 208.74 on Oct. 25, 2002, and DoD Instruction 500.2 in May 2003."

Within the vast, bright realm of cyberspace, however, lurk various tricksters and scam artists ranging from amusing to annoying or downright dangerous. These miscreants have turned their not inconsiderable talents to creating stories that convince the unwary to spread the seeds of their imaginations around the world. Submitted for your consideration are some of the stories that have become Internet legends and urban myths. All of them are hoaxes, but they cling to their odd half-lives through a combination of cunning, persistence and their ability to draw new believers to their cause."

FORCEnet Functional Concept...the Future of Naval Warfare
"The Functional Concept is viewed as a critical step in delivering fast and agile Naval Forces for the future. It sets in motion a new era for Navy and Marine Corps operations, one where networks will move and share information to provide unprecedented situational awareness, firepower and seamless alignment with joint and coalition forces. The functional concept identifies 15 capabilities which the Navy and Marine Corps will use to build the supporting architecture, doctrine, organization, training and supporting systems for FORCEnet. The concept serves as the naval command and control component of Sea Power 21 and expeditionary warfare The FORCEnet Functional Concept was developed under the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) process; derived directly from the Naval Operating Concept (2015-2020) for Joint Operations. It fully supports the Department of the Navy vision of Naval Power 21 and the supporting strategies of Sea Power 21 and Marine Corps Strategy 21."

DON CIP: A Comprehensive Solution to Improve Cyber and Physical Security of DON Critical Assets
"A primary goal of the Department of the Navy Information Management/Information Technology (IM/IT) Strategic Plan is 'providing Full Dimensional Protection (FDP) that ensures Naval warfighting effectiveness.' FDP involves three initiatives: Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP), Information Assurance and Privacy. This article provides an overview on the DON CIP initiative. CIP is mission assurance: the identification, assessment and assurance of cyber and physical assets essential to the mobilization, deployment and sustainment of U.S. military operations. Effective critical infrastructure protection identifies vulnerabilities and risks to critical assets supporting warfighting missions, remediates those validated vulnerabilities to protect against compromise, and, if compromised, minimizes impact to mission performance with effective consequence management plans and procedures."

Scuzzy and Beyond Part II
"In the CHIPS Jan-Mar 2005 edition, we discussed the recent advances and evolution of the small computer system interface (SCSI) standard. You can view this article at http://www.chips.navy.mil/archives/05_jan/web_pages/scuzzy.htm. In Part II, we will look at some of the overarching issues surrounding when and why SCSI may or may not be the preferred solution for you, and we will compare SCSI to some of the other competing standards. Raw specifications are fine, but to evaluate an entire system you must look at all of its components. So what are some of the criteria that might be a factor in this process? Typically, we would be concerned with the following: (1) Reliability/Maintainability - for example, mean time between failures; (2) Fault Tolerance - what is the impact of a failure on the system as a whole; (3) Speed/Data Throughput - how fast can data pass; (4) Storage capability - disk or array size; (5) Cost - usually expressed as cost per gigabyte; and (6) Scalability/Flexibility - how hard is it to change the configuration or increase storage."

Can You Hear Me Now? Transformational Communications - The Space Segment
"In the Jan-Mar 2005 edition of 'CHIPS', multiple aspects of the Department of Defense (DoD) planned Transformational Communications Architecture (TCA) were explored. This follow-on article focuses on the TCA space segment, which is a composite of space-based assets of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), DoD and the Intelligence Community (IC). These combined assets will interoperate and they will be supported by the other three TCA segments, which are primarily earth-bound: the terrestrial infrastructure segment, the terminal segment and the network and management segment. The space segment will extend the Global Information Grid (GIG) to users without fiber connections, providing improved connectivity and data transfer capability resulting in a revolutionary change in satellite communications for the warfighter."

FORCEnet: A Functional Concept for the 21st Century
"This paper describes a concept for naval command and control for joint operations and supporting activities in 2015-2020. The intent is to establish a common direction for the diverse efforts that contribute to building naval command and control capabilities in the future, and more broadly, to provide a common framework for thinking about future command and control. The ultimate objective is to support the development of desired FORCEnet capabilities. This concept represents an early step in the capabilities development process. Many additional steps will be required to realize the envisioned capabilities. Informed by higher-level guidance, this concept provides direction for subsequent functional analyses, architectural design, force development recommendations, and implementation decisions such as those related to budgeting, acquisition and experimentation. This concept provides broad guidance in the form of a vision of future command and control. It prescribes no specific developmental solutions or processes because maturing FORCEnet capabilities will require significant judgment and creativity by all those involved in force planning. The intention is that FORCEnet capabilities be fully realized by 2015-2020; individual capabilities will begin to appear before then. To reach this objective, all elements of force development--doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leader development, personnel and facilities--must begin moving toward that goal today. This paper identifies an initial set of capabilities required to implement this concept, and these provide a basis for developmental decisions."

Naval Transformation Roadmap 2003: Assured Access & Power Projection...From the Sea
This document is the first annual update to the Naval Transformation Roadmap. Naval transformation will support joint transformation by delivering new military capabilities and dramatically enhancing current capabilities to protect and advance America's worldwide interests by assuring access and projecting power from the sea. While the Navy - Marine Corps Team is expanding the entire array of naval capabilities we provide the Nation, our transformation is centered upon the development of Seabasing: the concepts and capabilities that exploit our command of the sea to project, protect, and sustain integrated warfighting capabilities from the maritime domain. Seabasing and the supporting tools we are developing will usher in dramatic new ways of employing naval forces to deter conflict and, when required, to wage war. Throughout, every aspect of naval transformation will be, first and foremost, committed to and built upon the principles of jointness. Seabasing will provide new naval capability options for use by Joint Force Commanders in innovative combinations with the transformed capabilities of the other Services and Agencies.

War on Terrorism is Just Beginning...
This document discusses that although terrorist camps have been destroyed, terrorist networks disrupted, and the people of Afghanistan and Iraq liberated, there are still many more battles to be fought. History has not yet recorded how the war on terrorism will be characterized. We do know, however, that it will be a long war. It is also a war in which the United States and its allies must prevail because the consequences are so profound. For the first time in the history of mankind, a small number of people with weapons of mass destruction can wreak untold havoc in our cities and against our citizens, against our allies, and against freedom loving people around the world.

Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC): Programmatic Environmental Assessment
"RIMPAC [Rim of the Pacific] is a multinational, sea control/power projection fleet exercise that has been performed biennially for the last 30 years. The purpose of RIMPAC is to implement a selected set of exercises that is combined into a sea control/power projection fleet training exercise in a multi-threat environment. RIMPAC exercises also demonstrate the ability of a multinational force to communicate and operate in simulated hostile scenarios. RIMPAC 2002 will be the eighteenth in a series involving forces from Australia, Canada and the United States; the twelfth involving the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force; the seventh involving the Republic of Korea Navy; and the fourth involving the Chilean Navy. The United Kingdom, France and Peru have been accepted to participate in RIMPAC 2002. RIMPAC 2002 is scheduled to be conducted from 25 June to 23 July 2002. During initial planning meetings in July 2001, the Action proponent, Commander, THIRD Fleet, gathered input from possible participants to understand the various testing and training needs. Operations personnel developed a general scenario to accommodate testing and training needs. As a result of three planning conferences considering budget and time constraints, as well as safety and environmental considerations, a final scenario and set of exercises were developed."

Operations Security (OPSEC) Plan
"This document supersedes COMSCINST 3070.1 and was issued to update the Operations Security (OPSEC) plan for Military Sealift Command (MSC) in accordance with references (a) and (b). This instruction is a complete revision and should be read in its entirety. The provisions of this instruction apply to the MSC organization, world wide, including ships of the MSC Force. To ensure integrity of operations, Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force (NFAF), Special Mission ships, Prepositioned ships and Strategic Sealift ships while under the operational control of other commands, will operate under the provisions of that Commander's OPSEC Plan. MSC will conduct an aggressive OPSEC Program designed to improve mission effectiveness through the identification and elimination of potential OPSEC vulnerabilities. OPSEC is not a security function; it is an operations function. The practice of OPSEC prevents the inadvertent compromise of sensitive or classified activities, capabilities or intentions at the tactical, operational and strategic levels. In order to conduct an effective OPSEC Program, all assigned personnel and contractors must understand the concept of OPSEC and apply that knowledge and awareness in their day-to-day performance of assigned tasks. Therefore, it is essential that all military and civilian personnel receive appropriate OPSEC training."
