ARTICLE: U.S. collaborates on Pacific maritime network, By Richard Halloran, Washington Times, August 17, 2007

Part mil, part civilian.
Part cop, part warrior.
Bureaucratically multi-lingual.
Maximally coalitional.

One of my two articles in the Oct. Esquire describes a USN connectivity program that accomplishes similar goals in a revolutionary use of an existing technology.

Thanks to CitizenSAR for sending this.
