DVIDS - News - Science, technology and experiments, oh my!


When most people think of the Marine Corps, they think of an elite war organization. What most don't think is how the Marine Corps fits into the information age and the ever-evolving operating environment of science and technology.

Captain John Geldmacher, the technical information operations officer for the I Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group (MIG), also holds the science, technology and experimentation officer's collateral ticket.

Geldmacher joined the Marine Corps as an intelligence officer, but was selected for the Commander's Career Level Education Board (CCLEB). This enabled him to attend and obtain a Masters degree from the Post Naval Graduate School in Monterey, California.

As a Technical Information Operations Officer, Geldmacher creates connections between technical specialists, information-related skills and subject matter experts.

"I am a connection point in a constellation of organizations such as science, industry and research and development war centers," said Geldmacher.

IMIG enables this collaboration with the Pete Ellis Innovation Node, among others. This is an environment created to work on projects, organize classes, and find new ways to stop potential threats. This enables moneymakers to connect with people who can fill the loopholes in potential deficits that IMIG may have.

"Having these connections and knowing enough about everyone's work makes me dangerous," said Geldmacher.

As a science, technology and experimentation officer, Geldmacher can also initiate tests with commercial devices in a tactical environment. This allows him to analyze their skills and quickly acquire assets that would be needed in potentially dangerous situations.

In his role within an operational command, Geldmacher can take a look at what research results, new developments and commercial products are being used and what potential this technology could have within the IMIG. He also strives to integrate these new technologies quickly and economically.

“To deal with new and interesting challenges. There's always something different from what I've worked with in the past. It takes critical thinking, and that's part of my favorite part, ”said Geldmacher.

Money maker is a valuable asset for IMIG. He continues to innovate and constantly strive to push the boundaries of technology whenever and wherever possible.

Futuristic 'Green' Fabric That Works Like a Smartphone Unveiled by Scientists

Image
A new substance developed by a team of Chinese scientists that works like a smartphone could have applications in communication, navigation, healthcare, and security. SWNS The high-tech garment could improve safety for cyclists, drivers and emergency services. For example, the brush on a sleeve could instantly display a “fabric card” on its arm. The inexpensive material turns a jacket into a touchscreen - and according to the SWNS news agency, it could be in stores by Christmas. Powered by solar energy, it combines conductive and luminescent fibers with cotton. Wearable technology has been promised for years, but creating large displays that are built into functional systems has proven difficult. Researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai spectacularly tackled this problem with a display fabric nearly 20 feet long and 10 inches wide.

TN school funding: Memphians want more money for special education, more

Image
Holding back the tears, Teresa Short described her struggles trying to help her son, a preschooler in need of special education, catch up after the school disruptions caused by COVID. Her school district, Fayette County Schools in Somerville, could only offer summer academic programs to children in K-12, she said. The reason, she was told, was the limited funding. "So I had to find private schools to try to get him to and pay out of my pocket to try and get him an education and get him where he needs to be," said Short. Given the opportunity to weigh how Tennessee should approach its first revision of the school funding formula in 30 years, Short advocated giving more money to schools overall and ensuring more money is allocated to special education students. She joined a crowded room with parents, students, educators, boards of directors, school board members and activists Thursday at the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis to visit the second of eight town ha
