I have an op-ed on Bloomberg View on the way in which the profusion of camera phones and other new-ish technology has caught the U.S. military off-guard.
The proliferation of camera phones and social-media networks has caused problems for the U.S. military as an institution. Much of this has to do with the generational divide in understanding technology. Most of the men and women serving in the lower enlisted and company-grade officer ranks are what the defense expert Thomas Rid identifies as digital natives. They grew up with e-mail, Facebook and the Internet playing as much a part in their childhoods as Saturday morning cartoons did.
The senior ranks of the military, on the other hand, are populated by digital immigrants. E-mail is something they can remember using for the first time. As late as 2008, at a conference at the U.S. Army War College, Rid asked a collection of senior officers and civilian defense officials how many of them had a Facebook profile. Only four of about 50 people in the room raised their hands.
He then asked how many people had heard of Twitter, and only two people raised their hands. Today, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff himself has a lively Twitter feed -- but the generational divide remains.
Read the rest here. With respect to this latest incident in Afghanistan, I continue to think this represents a failure of leadership on the part of whichever officers and noncommissioned officers were supposed to be supervising these soldiers. But there is a bigger issue surrounding new technologies that the U.S. military hasn't quite wrapped its head around, and in part I blame the fact that the people setting policy are often those least likely to understand the technology itself.
Abu M: The post resonates
Abu M:
The post resonates with some of the thinking I've done of late about how astounding contemporary technology really is. I recently acquired of an acquaintance about whether his nine-year old boys holds skills I would have considered as ones of basic survival: using a pay phone (he does not think his son has ever done so), using an encyclopedia* (he does own a Mickey Mouse or Disney encyclopedia set at home, and may or may not utilize a hard copy set at school); being able to use the yellow pages (he has a small school directory, but that is it so far as hard copy phone books). Similarly, the acquaintance's wife works for a nearby school district, where students are issued iPads upon commencing middle school. I recall having to teach my mother how to use a computer (starting with turning it on - literally), although my (81-year old) grandmother recently sent me an email starting with "OMG!!!!" (she will be my BFF 4ever!), so perhaps the situation is not so grim as it would seem. That said, I've been struck by how people younger than myself generally are more inclined to use Facebook; people older than myself, less so.
*Absolutely essential for completing my third grade report on the great state of Idaho. How else would I have know that state's longest river or primary agricultural product, facts which still guide my day-to-day decades later?
Also, just to be completely random, I have also reflected on what a different world this is for that nine-year old in terms of social more and, in particular, homosexuality. I recall when a lesbian kiss on "Roseanne" was censored; obviously, times have changed.
While appreciative of your noting the digital divide in the armed forces, I think it still remains an issue of leadership, and would have liked more about that. My own current use of social media on Carl Prine's Line of Departure, referencing in part when in "Platoon" Lieutenant Wolff awkwardly tried to fraternize with the men in Barnes's hootch (to country and western music no less, as opposed to the Motown listened to by the nicer patrons of Elias's hootch*), made me think about having read "Platoon" is used as a case study of how *not* to be a leader at USMA. Leadership is hard. Not everyone can do it. Not everyone can learn to do it. Our system is arguably bizarre - the most junior officer in the United States military commissioned yesterday is nominally superior to the most senior enlisted person (and, I presume, warrant officer) in the same institution. How does a 21-year old Facebook user, last year a college student attending ROTC a few days a week at most, relate to his or her personnel? Should he or she friend them on Facebook? While at first I would think "No," I also am aware of officers who have really been appreciative of the mentorship provided by the enlisted personnel they lead, and conversely, enlisted personnel who have really enjoyed mentoring the officers who lead them. You have grappled with these issues before. How to be a leader in this current, very strange age of rapidly changing technology and social norms?
*Themselves tinged with an arguable tad of eroticism, albeit perhaps driven solely by sexual deprivation and the absence of anyone of the opposite sex with whom to dance to such fine classics as "Tracks of My Tears."

Exum thank you for the
Exum thank you for the stereotype. This one is propagated through society. One of the latest cell phone TV ads asks an older person what they did for communication and the response was " we used two tin cans connect with a string". The young people get a joke out of it and the cell company gets their money. The older person still has his cash in the bank. Who won? Lot of younger people loose their money these days, they have service plans out the ass and a college tuition bill to match. We have become slaves to technology. You can not even make a F*ing hotel reservation without a VISA card these days.
People have been communicating for years, the speed of communication has changed. Information from the war front really has not changed how fast we get it has, there are some explicit pictures from the US civil war of dead people. http://www.civilwarphotos.net/view/770.htm Before the civil war people got out the oil paints and canvas. The information was still communicated effectively.
It may be true that the Joint Chiefs do not use technology. They do know what it is and what the speed of the media is. The speed of the media is known universally that knowledge transcends generations. You would have to live under a rock not to have heard the advancement of technology in the past 20 years, using it is a different story. People in the Pentagon are making decisions about communications for defense purposes every day. The N*A surely knows about communications! Developed countries are saturated with marketing for the fasted communication devices every made! If you do not have electricity yet you can read about it in the newspaper.
Someone just did not do their job to consider the content from the war front to the home level !!!! They lost control of the message to the US people and world. That responsibility goes right to the top !!! Obama had a Blackberry he is commander and chief.
With changing communications come the people that sell the information. CNN made a business out of it. What is acceptable to sell changed in the 60's. Kennedy's sexual business never made it to print. Today we already have the names of the people that got their dicks wet in Columbia. Those glass negatives of dead US civil war people were not too popular and a lot of them were used to build green houses after the civil war.
http://marcnelsonart.wordpress.com/2010/03/16/greenhouse-glass-winter/gr... Generations weight information differently.
Problem is something that we do not do very well anymore and that is discipline and responsibility. The people involved in government and the military need to consider the impact of their actions. Society has a responsibility too in that the father guided the family. In today's world family values are taught by teachers in our school system for many children whose father is somewhere else. The military has always been a place to learn how to "grow-up". There is a generational and political divide in what we think is acceptable for consumption and how and why it is done. We have to face that responsibility as individuals. Shit happens in war.
This is not about the Joint Chiefs not knowing how to do Facebook. People with high security clearances should not be using Facebook anyway !! Cell phone with a GPS device tracking who they visit??? Get real.
BTW. This is a fun one on the Internet.

The movie "Platoon" and country music as examples??? ADTS your hurting me ! What is next examples of "Apocalypse Now"? Gays have been in the military for years, they just did have a rainbow flag over their squad in parades.
People have been looking the other way for many years, most consider the person.
Times have changed, but not in the way you think. We are about personal agenda more then ever. The movements from the 60's are the biggest failures ever ! If it wasn't for Steve Jobs having lived in a time of explosive expansion of communications, he would just be another pot smoking hippie. It is pretty easy to sell electronics when people buy all you make. Some of the people from the 60's are the richest people in the world.
There is a lot of Mo Town in country music these days and visa versa, music artists have been swapping ideas since the beginning of beating on drums.
Sit back and enjoy. A lot of Reggae is just about crying in your beer.

I find it rather strange that
I find it rather strange that people (Exum) keep commenting on cameras and camera phones when it's the ability to propogate the images to a place where others can find them, and the desire of those others to bring them to the attention of the public and the public's ability to understand the actions of young men in the context of war that is the crux of the matter.
But, OK, lets talk about the cameras and phones. Ask youself, does the military confiscate civilian equipment and issue a replacement? Soldiers don't wear jeans to war, they wear a uniform. They don't bring their favorite plinker, they use the weapons they are issued (sometimes to their dismay). Don't like those pictures on the internet? Ban cameras and cell phones and issue military ones. A cell phone for every soldier with a military plan which is deducted from their pay. A platoon camera that the NCOs will use on request. Secondary MOS: censor.
Oh wait, I forgot, Americans want automajic solutions that don't take any effort and involve something for nothing (debt counting as nothing).
This is shtick-thinking by
This is shtick-thinking by Andrew.
Come on, are you really saying that senior officers in the military don’t get technology simply because we are old and didn’t grow up with it? That is not the problem and is not what is going on here.
Your argument would be just like saying the younger generation in Vietnam protested the war because the older generation didn’t grow up with TVs in their homes in the 1930s and therefore could not wrap their hands around the war and understand it.
It is the same old rehashing although in different skins by Andrew of the Coin shtick. The young turks and the youngsters get things but the old conventional fogies don’t.
With regard to Andrew’s quip that the problem with these photos in Astan were a leadership problem; well sure, what else can you add though? Leadership was certainly a problem at My Lai, at Abu Graib, at Abbey Ardennes, and on and on. What else Andrew can you say about these wars, especially the one in Afghanistan, of which in 2009 you strongly advocated for the continuance of the broken strategy and operational method that has helped to get us to this point?
Exum, there is one thing that
Exum, there is one thing that you have not touched on concerning technology perhaps for your Bloomberg article it was not important.
This is it: People put technology on a pedestal and hail it as a solution.
The implication of your article is that the people that do not use technology are some how lessened to comprehend it.(sort of like saying gays can not be good parents or soldiers). I built your toys and I only use the technology when I see that it provides value to my life or is a revenue center. Other people hop on the band wagon like lemmings. That zeal for technology has enabled Bill Gates to make more money than his next 16 generations can spend. Gate's political party cries in its beer about financial inequality. Intel drove the processor market just as Microsoft made money on software by making their previous product obsolete. The old product worked just fine, but you are forced to make a contribution to the industry because there is a built-in product feature that makes the human obsolete if they try to keep using the old platform, usually it is speed (all those hopping and popping advertisements take a lot of bandwidth to sell something to you, one of the reason you need to pay more for high-speed DSL service today just to read your email or twitter which takes hardly any bandwidth at all) or file size of your operating system that disables your electronics long before the transistors wear out. Your integrated circuits are manufactured to last past 10 years, the industry pays a lot of money to insure the reliability. There is a product marketing cycle that is used to maximize profit, every marketing person knows it. The early stage of a product, when the sales are "new", is the place you make the largest amount of profit. Companies are always bringing out the latest and greatest so the product cycles overlap to maximize profits. The car companies got rid of their competition to steer car purchases after WW2 by buy up and taking out of service mass transit. Today, telecommunication companies are trying kill two wire copper service and they have gotten rid of most of the pay phones, they want to steer you into 4G.
That brings me to the "energy revolution" and EPA. For all the generations of technology, there is a huge pile of junk somewhere equaled only by the size of the hole dug to mine raw materials. All the CO2 that is made by burning fossil fuel to haul raw materials to and finished product from the Asian Rim. There is a lot of organic solvents used in the semiconductor business, China dumps the waste. Tablet sales are projected at 15 BILLION units by 2015.
I laugh and I cry at the same time. Cash flow is fantastic. People at FoxConn thank Steve Jobs for the sweat-shop job. (The early MAC PC's with Windows 85, slang for the icon based Windows 98 like human interface system those computers used, were signed inside by all the people that made them. All workers in the USA. The signatures are part of the mold that cast the plastic computer enclosure. One of Steve Jobs last words on this planet was, "those FoxConn jobs are not coming back to the USA. Jobs sold out the people that made him! ).
The basics for all our technology has not changed since the transistor was invented at Bell Labs. For all your wireless connectivity toys, the concept of electromagnetic propagation has not changed since the Marconi. The physics of semiconductor devices has not changed, the sized and materials used in there fabrication has. Level of integration (being able to pack more transistors into the same area) has enabled digital processing of information rather than pure analog solutions. With the digital processing came software, you can change the function of your electronics by changing software. An example is software radio, the software application loaded determines the frequencies you listen to. Levels of encryption have never been higher in communications because of it. Your cell phone is an example of software radio, the government and the people that want to sell your information limit your level of privacy. The point of this discussion is electronic features have improved, the basic concepts to create them have not. It will be a few years before we realize single atom transistors working on a completely different principle than what is used today.
That gets me to education. If the principles of technology have not changed then why is it that so much emphasis is placed on the tool and not the method? To walk into any class room today, you have to spend a huge amount of cash on the technology to just start teaching the basics used to create the communication media ! Many schools change that technology on a three year schedule that wraps up in the cost of tuition. Tuition has increase 15 fold since the time the first computers entered the class room, the cost of living and wages have not see the same increase.
Sometimes I think technology has taken humans backward. Too much silicon not enough brains.
Old timers called it, " More money than sense".
BTW....It only gets worse in Defense. Think of the cost of the F35. Look at the optics that were used in Iraq and Afghanistan in the past ten years (infrared $20-30K, light intensifiers $3-15K, visible bandwidth $1-6K, K means $1000 and that is for each unit purchase, and millions of units are bought).
We will not even get into all the radio electronics that the upper brass stroked approvals on for "transformation", look at the new Mobile fighting platforms with battlefield communication poured into them ! Crap the cost of heads up displays will be a fortune.
If the general does not "get" Twitter, the person doing the work on staff does.
There is no excuse. There is too much dependence on technology.
Huh, so you're saying that
Huh, so you're saying that the Taliban propaganda operations are more successful than the NATO propaganda operations?
Well, that's easy to explain - all of the Taliban's propaganda material is produced for them, free of charge, by members of the occupation - pissing on Bibles or Korans or whatever, going crazy and slaughtering civilians, along with all the drone strikes on villages and the nighttime raids in the middle of Afghan villages. All the Taliban need to do is distribute the material as widely as possible.
NATO and the Pentagon, in contrast, hire sleazy PR firms with huge tax debts to run their useless PR efforts, and when they're busted for being corrupt and incompetent, they try to go after those who expose them - like Leonie Industries, right?

http://gawker.com/5903821
Hey, what's the name of that law that bans the military and CIA from engaging in domestic propaganda operations targeting the U.S. public? You know, the one that the Pentagon wants to do away with?
The Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, which provided a legal framework for public diplomacy activities, forbids the government from disseminating within the United States information intended for foreign audiences.
The most under-enforced law in American history, right?
These photos, be it the Abu
These photos, be it the Abu Ghraib pics, Marine sniper squirt shots, or the recent 82nd legs and arms study, are not a reflection of lack of discipline and command and control.
No. These fucked up and twisted pics are a reflection of 21st century American culture. Open up and read your local papers every day. How many stories have you read where high-schoolers have nudie pics of their classmates on their cell phones? The Drudge Report has at least one video per week from World Star Hip Hop that shows a gang of African-Americans stomping on a white person.
Our soldiers, like our civilians, film everything.... good, bad, indifferent, pornographic, etc.....
Americans no longer have a sense of shame. Our culture is a toilet.
Look at two commanders names
Look at two commanders names - Drinkwine and Jenio. Info is widely available in the Internet archives, and will give a hint as to the root of the command issues the 1/508 faced.
What we are really discussing
What we are really discussing are three things.
1) How the organization helps the solder understand the impact of the information they are ABOUT to experience, it is part of the preparation of war in an instant communication age. This is where the guys "that have been there" can help the next generation learn.
**2) How the upper ranks handle their politics and shift blame once "unpopular" pictures are published.
3) Is the media selling news or advertising? How do they fit into a COIN or Counter-terrorist effort.
**Exum, I think that your article is only enabling the upper ranks to have an excuse by saying that they did not know any better cause they are technologically illiterate (not true). The taxpayer pays six figure salaries with retirement to brass for managing, leading troops, and to know what to expect in the process of doing their function. You missed an opportunity to focus on #1 instead you covered management's butt (including Obama's)
Diversity always gives me a chuckle cause the people that preach it always get too much of it and that upsets their way.

I happen to agree with your posting. Thank you for your honesty.
As for the Burning Korans do you people know the books have been regularly used by Tailban couriers in the transporting of information, orders and maps? They use the books as a means to protect the information.
As for 3 letter acronym agencies and Facebook, you would be surprised how many people with TS / SCI clearances have these accounts. The USG has no policy forbidding the use and they never will. Get over it. Personally I've never owned or had a Facebook account and I never will. But I find it hilarious that those in senior leadership positions or in sensitive positions use it and Linked-in to advertise their jobs and classified or sensative jobs they conduct.
What is the solution to these problems? New Policy? New regulations and guidelines?
Well DoD's solution was Counterintelligence Field Activity or CIFA. Get a free hour or so do some research on it. Back in 2005 it got a lot of headlines and now it's gone underground. Things are a lot worse than you can even imagine on both sides.

The Koran business is not new information.
Agree with FB/social networking guidelines on TS/SCI. Only suggesting that the people involved should consider their personal information and I don't think they do, there is nothing "to get over". Manning is the poster child. Nothing will happen unless there is a problem, it will never be the fault of the upper ranks for not considering the impact. Someone lower will be burned to save the institution.
So what is the second best thing on the Internet?
http://www.rttnews.com/1865225/officials-us-afghan-strategic-partnership...
Be nice if the metrics of the Afghan Pact deal were known before the taxpayer has to belly up with the $2.5B/yr. Metrics like what security progress has to be made in order to justify the AID, human rights monitors, what happens if the other partners stop payments, and government corruption reduction. Only thing the voter will hear after Chicago is how great it is the war is ending.
How stupid can Americans be to not put a sunset on AID. What do we do keep paying Egypt and Israel for eternity? I hear a ten year commitment in Afghanistan, it never stops.
Think this is going to be an other "we can't wait" moment and the US taxpayer is just going to have to like it. Foreign Policy hero re-dux.
USAID is being militarized
USAID is being militarized and they are being embedded with g2. Not smart. They do need to be reduced greatly in numbers. Horribly wasteful agency.

Government needs a true Renascence period. One that grooms America to be sustainable (I am not talking energy or immigration). Reagan did it for his generation, I am not talking about another Reagan, Obama, or Romney.
Not with increased head count, but with justification for it. We need to give "it" a reason to manage cash better. Setting a few examples would be a start and there are a load of them at GSA. I can list a ton of other examples. It does not stop with government, industry can use a dose of "what is good for America is also good for business", they need to think Americans first. Don't tell me that the global market is larger, Americans buy corporate junk and Americans pay the freight for the University facilities to do corporate innovation. What I am talking about is having pride in America, not just your self. Making the correct choice.
Getting tired of people using the American flag as a stepping stone, it should be a destination.
Hey Exum, between my Geritol and Ensure (couple fingers of "Old Grand Dad" gives it zing) I noted that Sandy is out and Ivy is in, Bridge I mean. Not really sure it is going to get my walker moving any faster, but it does do something to my pacemaker that I never experienced before that "Old Grand Dad" never came close to doing for me ;}. If you go wild with USB three and like it native, then you are in luck. Been so long that my eyes could focus it is hard for me to even see the spec sheet and no chance of seeing the actual three dimensional transistors that Intel is printing at the 22nm level. Out with the old in with the new, you whipper snappers can read about it here.

The 3-D structures are suppose to reduce power consumption, these high core processors are real pigs. Some of the instantaneous switching currents on the motherboard can exceed 100amps which is the amperage required to crank your auto engine (just not for as long a period, computers are about jiffy seconds) , you can tell how many electrons are sloshing about in the cores by heat the processor gives off. With the decreased size of the geometries the transistor gates are getting so small and the gate materials are getting so thin that they are no longer ideal insulators which results in parasitic gate leakage. With million of active devices on a modern processor leaking at the same rate, you can image the wasted heat and power related issues. Now you should be able to understand the marketing associated with Intel processor offerings for the past couple generations.
Hafnium is a barrier material that changes the energy levels at the gate interface, same thing a "good" insulator does.

The paper does not totally explain what is happening and even silly Americans can understand the science behind the energy diagrams. It is the energy diagrams that help us understand what is happening at the quantum level in a transistor as the electrical properties change within a device and areas in a crystal structure doped with impurities. A couple people named Planck ( http://itl.chem.ufl.edu/4412_aa/origins.html ) and Heisebrug ( http://www.aip.org/history/heisenberg/p08.htm ) helped us a long the way in history.
More Intel processor cores, more parallel processing, resulting in more capabilities all on a "chip" that is smaller than the size of your thumbnail. Something tells me that I better get a processor fan for my new Ivy Bridge computer build.
Then again, I am so F*ing old that I might shock the shit out myself and void the warranty. Carp is so and cheap made in China anyway. Old farts like myself are just a dime-a-dozen, sipping our Jack and Ensure.

Good article above. Talon and other programs are too far out of date and DoD contractors like Mantech, SAIC and LM, should be fired. The CIFA programs they were hired to enforce, analyze and monitor are failing.
Welcome to the age of
Welcome to the age of information processing.
What we are talking about is a relational database that gathers behaviors and makes associations. The data being collected is not new, the way it is collected is. Person which my father attributes to saving his life in boyhood was arrested as being a Nazi spy, later my father went on to shoot his cousins in WW2. There were files generated about US citizens during Vietnam, many demonstrations were very violent. The DoD is all about contingencies, the data may never be used. Our connectivity enables the collection as the ability to do it scales up. That is what the geeks call a killer app for a computer, memory has never been so cheap. People also enable gathering cause they are about what ever makes their lives easier, convenience is a strong marketing tool. There is an overlapping agenda in industry for profit, data makes sales.
Enter the defense contractor.
DoD writes the requirement, the contractor bids, and DoD pays well. You can blame SAIC for being willing, but really the DoD has sole responsibility for defining the scope of the project. If Talon is outdated, then someone needs to decide what they want and give it a purpose statement. It is a lot easier said than done cause it is not popular to implement. There will always be a purpose to have the information, it serves a dual purpose which is something that any commercial credit agency like Transperian could not deny.
The best terror defense is the American citizen. Taking the person shopping at the mall at the lowest alert level possible and making them aware is the best warning and collection system possible. Getting them to do it or care without being paid for it is another issue all together. Collective security is something we cared about in the 50's, it is also one the things we take for granted today in a globalized world. We are not that loyal anymore when there is more profit in China. Lot of changes in our society since the 60's not all for the better. The way we have fought the war on terror you could hardly tell that America was at war at all.
There is responsibility in citizenship. We need to decide our nationality that use to be a no brainier. German immigrants lined up in America in the 40's to kill their cousins because they decided their nationality, the ones that decided different went to jail or internment. Our concept of duty has changed into today's world. It is interesting in that for all the want to collect data there is a balance within social media to manage the collection. It is about the scalability of information gathering, it hard to keep it secret.
I would be more concerned about the intellectual property leaking out of the US University system. Americans pay good money to support those schools to teach our children to be better. The people running the show sell a good percent of the school chairs to folks that have a different sense of ownership. Diversity is not bad, there are limits and the University Administrator looking to fund their programs doesn't seem to care who benefits from the intellectual property collection process. If globalized America has allegiance to money and intellectual property generation then we as Americans are doing a piss poor job doing pride of ownership.
It is just more than a defense contractor not doing their job. We as Americans are failing too.
