The Daily Transcript Sentek prepares product, AFRICOM activated After a year of building the organization to develop long-term partnerships, U.S. Africa Command was activated on Oct. 1.
Hamlin Tallent, vice president of C4ISR Systems at San Diego-based Sentek Consulting, said he hopes the command now will focus more time on an outward reach to Africa and encompass industry ideas.
SOA affords agencies the ability to take advantage of new technologies and respond to end-user demands more quickly and cost- effectively. However, establishing and maintaining connectivity between applications and services can be significantly difficult in forward- deployed operations. There will need to be some rethinking by program managers and engineers about how data exchange can occur with units and individuals operating in remote areas.
"Over the years, the value of a college degree has had proven staying power. The "piece of paper" as I've heard it referred to, does have value for demonstrating a person's ability to commit to and achieve a significant education goal, if it's from a reputable school. Although everyone has several examples of successful senior executives and strategic thinkers without four year undergraduate degrees, these tend to be both exceptions and exceptional individuals. If hiring for a junior, technician type of position in IT, a degree is not required. For more senior and management positions, a degree is preferred. Certifications are useful for demonstrating that a candidate has the interest in a particular field and the ability to test well. Beyond that, they have little value in demonstrating aptitude at a particular IT skill set and experience in a specific area will always outweigh a certification.”
The role of combatant commands has evolved over the years, and Africom has taken another step forward. It will not design war plans, but instead will enable African countries to work together to ensure their security. As one officer said, “We can consider it a success if we do not have American troops on the ground in Africa for 50 years.”
The U.S. Navy recently reduced the number of new, state-of-the-art DDG-1000 class destroyers to be purchased from seven to three and decided instead to build more Arleigh Burke-class DDG-51 destroyers. Budget constraints don't allow otherwise without hampering the service's goal of growing its fleet to 313 ships.
What remains in question, however, is whether the Navy can still meet its mission. The answer is yes.
