I'd encourage all people, even non-IDC personnel, to check it out.
They had two articles of interest for me. One discussed the Pacific Fleet Intelligence Federation, which I left a positive comment on since I'm working in it right now.
The other was EIDWS. I'm not a huge fan of how I've seen EIDWS rolled out anywhere, since it does not resemble how the Navy does normal qualification processes, and the changes aren't good. I left the following comment:
I take issue with a few points and a lot of how EIDWS has been implemented.
- This bulletin makes EIDWS out like a completely separate program from the officer's qualification. That is not how any other warfare area runs, and it's stupid. For example, in the submarine community most of the qualification signatures come from enlisted personnel, who are the experts on their systems, and it's only at the tail end that you find signatures that only officers sign. Enlisted submarine quals are similar, where many signatures can come from any JO qualified as an OOD. This helps build trust between officers and enlisted, and it makes each side invested in each others training. The thought that this doesn't hold true in the IDC is completely out of line.
