Rhumb Lines: Joint Task Force Odyssey Dawn, March 20, 2011
"In response to a call for action by the Libyan people and the Arab League, the President of the United States called for a limited military action with coalition partners under United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1973, to end the violence against Libyan citizens. The UNSCR authorizes use of force with an explicit commitment to pursue all necessary measures, to include the enforcement of a no-fly zone over Libya. Carefully coordinated with coalition partners, U.S. naval forces participated in cruise missile strikes as part of Operation Odyssey Dawn designed to set the conditions for a coalition no-fly zone, striking more than 20 integrated air defense systems and other air defense facilities ashore in Libya March 19."

A discussion of necessary governance in the context of the MDA Architecture Management Hub follows. Subsequently, high-level strategies for the overall MDA enterprise architecture, as well as strategies for key tenets of net-centric information sharing (data standards and information assurance) are included. Finally, this document will address the resource implications for development and implementation of the architecture. The goal of the Architecture Management Hub is to provide a blueprint to develop a net-centric, information sharing environment, in which data from disparate sources and security domains will be discoverable, accessible, understandable, fused, and usable, with appropriate information assurance, to enable user defined and common operational pictures. This blueprint will guide departments and agencies in their development of capabilities to enable MDA."

Time to Update Our Strategic Vision and Goals
From the Online Blog: "After two years serving as your Secretary of the Navy, it is time to update the department's vision and goals. We've accomplished a lot together, and we need to keep looking forward. The return of great power competition is testing our readiness and capabilities in ways we haven't seen in a generation. We have to be ready to fight tonight in every part of the world, and in every domain, as one integrated naval force. The department's new vision gets to the heart of this. The credible and immediate presence of the Navy and Marine Corps within all operational domains ensures the security and prosperity of the American people and preserves open access to the global commons. The expeditionary character of our Sailors and Marines is an indispensable component of the Joint Force. As such, we can expect America's adversaries to continue to erode our maritime advantage through every means at their disposal."

"This year, Naval Special Warfare (NSW) celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first two SEAL Teams. In the late 1950s and early 1960, Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F.

Burke officially authorized creation of the SEAL Teams in the Atlantic and Pacific Fleets, effective Jan. 1, 1962. SEALs are conducting some of our nation's most critical missions, proving they are as relevant today as they were when they were first created. NSW forces work jointly and with U.S. allied and coalition partner nation forces to ensure security and stability throughout the world."

Rhumb Lines: Defense Strategic Guidance Rollout for 2012, January 6, 2012
"After 10 years of war, the United States and our military are at a strategic inflection point that requires transitioning from today's conflicts to tomorrow's challenges. Passage of the Budget Control Act of 2011 Aug. 2, 2011, required the Department of Defense to cut more than $450 billion from the Defense Base Budget over 10 years. The Department of Defense worked with the White House to develop strategic guidance, 'Sustaining U.S. Global Leadership: Priorities for the 21st Century,' which was presented Jan. 5. 2012 by President Obama and Defense Secretary Panetta to guide the size and shape of the defense force over subsequent program and budget cycles. The strategy outlines how the leaner, technologically superior force of the 21st century will remain capable across the spectrum of missions, focusing on areas including counter terrorism and irregular warfare; electronic and cyber warfare; intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance; missile and air defense; and retaining our ability to conduct counterinsurgency operations. The U.S. will use innovative methods to maintain a global presence such as rotational deployments and training exercises, with a premium on our special operations forces."

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."
