Wired: Tough Talking for Marines in Iraq
Wired: Tough Talking for Marines in Iraq"Take, for instance, a Marine riding aboard a light armored vehicle. According to the field report, he'd use a headset to talk on the intercom to his buddies inside the vehicle. When his squad leader called, the Marine would have to remove his helmet and grab a hand-held radio to chat. To speak to a group of Marines nearby, he'd have to grab another radio. And to rap with the Navy SEALs, he'd need yet another radio. He would manage all this while keeping an eye on two different laptops showing the positions of friendly and hostile forces."
Comment: Same stuff happens inside organizations. Knowledge worker or technology guinea pig?
