Abstract:
Adversaries use cost-effective and timely technologies to counter expensive military acquisitions that undermine the United States’ military capabilities. With the private sector outpacing defense innovation, the speed of technology and business drives future warfare considerations. If technology corporations drive the speed of the future of warfare, then appreciating design thinking’s business model applicability to military strategy shapes how the Marine Corps responds to uncertain operating environments during the next several decades. This article incorporates aspects of design thinking for the Marine Corps to provide variables aiding in future warfare innovation to solve complex problems inherent to the future operating environment.

Abstract:
AbstractThe story of the Oran-based Jewish merchant Jacob Lasry (1793–1869) illustrates how preexisting North African business practices survived and adapted to the radical dislocations of the French conquest of Algeria. In the 1830s, French political turmoil and indecision helped foster a chaotic situation where French generals with nebulous goals “outsourced” financing and even military campaigns to local experts in Algeria. Lasry's business success in the economy of the early conquest invested him with a degree of power vis-à-vis the French administration, whose other proxies sometimes ended up in severe debt to him. With the rise of a “civilizing mission” discourse in the 1840s and 1850s, aspects of this mission, too, were outsourced to local experts. Despite his Moroccan birth, Gibraltarian family, and British subjecthood, Lasry used his stature to secure the official position of president of the province'sconsistoire israélite, charged with advancing French civilization among Oran's indigenous Jews.

Abstract:
Only two weeks after the fall of Saigon in May 1975, Khmer Rouge forces seized the American merchant ship SS Mayaguez (1944) off the Cambodian coast, setting up a Marine rescue and recovery battle on the island of Koh Tang. This battle on 12–15 May 1975 was the final U.S. military episode amid the wider Second Indochina War. The term Vietnam War has impeded a proper understanding of the wider war in the American consciousness, leading many to disassociate the Mayaguez incident from the Vietnam War, though they belong within the same historical frame. This article seeks to provide a heretofore unseen historical argument connecting the Mayaguez incident to the wider war and to demonstrate that Mayaguez and Koh Tang veterans are Vietnam veterans, relying on primary sources from the Ford administration, the papers of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, and interviews with veterans.

Abstract:
In recent years, the development of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has become an extremely important issue for Ukraine. Among the many important areas in ensuring the country's defense capabilities was the issue of the actual revival of the Marines of the Ukrainian Navy after the annexation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea by the Russian Federation. Within the framework of our work the system of state guarantees of service by servicemen of the Marines of the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is analyzed and the prospects of further improvement of administrative and legal bases of this direction of activity of public authorities are singled out. Analyzing the historical aspects of the formation of the Marines, we can state that this is a relatively separate unit of the armed forces, aimed at performing special tasks and functions in both offensive and defensive military operations. Nowadays, there is an active development of special units of different purpose and functionality - this is primarily due to socio-political domestic and geopolitical processes. Informatization of society, development of technologies, finds its application in the military sphere. Today, the processes of modernization of the Ukrainian army with the help of modern telecommunication capabilities are actively reflected. To increase the level of awareness of both the general public and the military, official websites, Facebook pages, military leadership at various levels have been created, and the media, in turn, pay special attention to the country's defense capabilities.

Abstract:
This paper documents an initial study of the feasibility and potential value of developing an Interactive Rules of the Road Tester. Using an existing desk-top ship bridge simulator, a series of interactive exercises were developed to match the test objectives of a paper and pencil multiple-choice test currently administered to mariners by the U.S. Coast Guard. Both tests were administered to 100 U.S. Merchant Marine Academy students and biographical data relevant to Rules of the Road knowledge and application were obtained for each student. Analyses indicated that the separate test formats measured different aspects of students' competencies and that a test that combines both written items and interactive exercises has the potential to increase the overall level of test validity. Such a system is see as a cost-effective means of improving the assessment of mariner's knowledge and application of the Rules of the Road.

Abstract:
The ultimate goal of implementing a monitoring system is to improve the settings in which children go to school every day and to identify areas where students need support. Data can show which aspects of school climate are already creating positive experiences for students while also leading educators to focus on those areas that need attention or intervention. Educators should pay special attention to groups of students that might be more likely to exhibit risky behavior or to be victimized by other students. For example, using the California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) data, it became clear that military- connected students who have changed schools multiple times experience victimization and reported higher rates of weapon- carrying than others. The schools, therefore, have implemented a wide range of initiatives to help new students feel welcome, meet other students, and get involved in school activities. Similarly, data showing that foster care and homeless youth experience social- emotional difficulties may prompt districts to pay attention to these groups of students and mobilize community and state resources to respond to their needs. Sometimes the data will show that certain incidents among students are more likely to occur during certain times of the school day or in certain areas of the campus, mostly where there is a lack of supervision by adults. This knowledge can help school leaders and students develop innovative solutions for avoiding those problems. Such a situation took place at Santa Margarita Elementary School— located on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton— where tensions among students often boiled over on the playground during recess. Then- Principal Pat Kurtz worked with her playground “duty supervisors” to implement a variety of strategies that would make recess time less stressful and empower both the students and the supervisors to create more positive experiences for students: . . . First, when Kurtz brought a child into her office because of a behavior problem, she also brought in the duty supervisor, who likely intervened in the situation on the playground, so that he or she could learn how Kurtz worked with a child who was struggling with peers. . . .

Abstract:
The Netherlands Ministry of Defence (MoD) has issued an Operational Energy Strategy (OES) with ambition targets for energy independence and improvement of energy efficiency during the life time of naval platforms. A target is given in 2030 of 20 % reduced dependence on fossil fuels and in 2050 of 70 % reduced dependence on fossil fuels, compared to 2010. More stringent environmental emission (NOx, CO2, etc.) requirements are to be expected as a result from IMO and (local) political regulations. In the last decades the power consumption on board of naval platforms increased substantially as well as the complexity of integrated energy systems. Market surveys shows that the evolution of commercial green technologies are promising but have to be demonstrated in the coming years on low power and energy levels. They will not be de-risked in depth or well proven to be successful in time to be selected for the Royal Netherlands Navy (RNLN) new naval projects (2019 – 2025). Furthermore, new technologies as energy resources and carriers (H2, LNG, methanol, power-to-liquid (PTL), etc.) or new system technologies (DC on high voltage level, fuel cell systems, waste energy recovery, etc.) require a new approach for integration aspects like hazard and safety cases and energy efficiency. This is because the energy demand on board of naval platforms in several military operational modes differ from the merchant and off-shore branch. In this paper an approach for an adaptable energy platform is described to design a new naval platform based on nowadays proven technology as fossil fuels that can be transformed during life time that can fulfill the expectations and requirements of the coming decades (non-fossil fuels, zero emission, improved energy efficiency). Aspects as a naval energy index as reference will be discussed as well as an evaluation of new technologies for new naval platform integration design parameters, such as power or energy demands, consequences of energy resources, energy control as well as build in ship construction safety measures.

Abstract:
The Royal Navy is pursuing the ‘All Electric’ ship under its Marine Engineering Development Strategy. This strategy envisages the use of long life, fuel efficient, advanced cycle marine gas turbine alternator sets in an Integrated Electric Propulsion system, which includes the wide scale electrification of auxiliary systems. In 2000 the UK Ministry of Defence placed a contract on Turbomeca Limited, France, for the development of a 1.8MW advanced cycle gas turbine driving a high speed alternator, providing 800V DC output. The basic design details of this 1.8MW Gas Turbine Alternator (GTA), known as the ACL GTA, was presented at the Turbo Expo 2003 in Atlanta, Georgia. However, since 2003 the design of all the components has been finalised and testing has now commenced on this novel Gas Turbine (GT) technology. The purpose of this paper is to present the first of those test results and describe the final design of the unit on test by constituent parts. These include the bare GT, the recuperator, the directly coupled permanent magnet High Speed Alternator (HSA), its controller the Electronic Unit (EU) and the Monitoring and Control System (MCS). Information will be provided on the individual unit testing and how it is being integrated to ensure project success. The aspects of the design covering control of the power output, self-sustainability and ability to parallel or operate with other diesel generators or GTAs will also be discussed. As an introduction the paper will briefly reiterate the requirement for this GTA and discuss the importance of the commercial business case in conjunction with the military requirements so as to design and build a GTA capable of directly competing with diesel generators.

Abstract:
GE Aircraft Engines and the Air Force Research Laboratory have been jointly developing a novel combustor technology concept for potential application in gas turbine engines. This novel combustor concept is known as the Trapped Vortex Combustor (TVC). The GE and AFRL team began work on the design of a prototypical TVC test rig in 1996. This effort represents the extension of earlier AFRL research with the TVC [1,2]. This work led to the fabrication of a 30.5 cm wide rectangular sector test rig capable of operation at inlet pressures up to 20.5 atmospheres, inlet temperatures up to 900 K, and to stoichiometric discharge conditions. Testing of the rectangular sector rig was initiated in mid year 1998. The performance evaluation performed on the test rig covered all aspects of gas turbine combustor performance and operability including ground start ignition, lean blowout, altitude re-light, emissions, combustion efficiency, exit gas temperature profile, and structural metal temperatures. Test rig operating conditions provided simulations of current commercial and military aircraft gas turbine engine cycles as well as some advanced engine cycles, with JP-8 type fuel. Data was also obtained at selected operating conditions for the LM2500 marine Navy duty cycle using DL-1 type fuel. The prototype rig has been operated for a total of approximately 300 run hours. 60 hours of run time at pressures exceeding 13.6 atmospheres and temperatures exceeding 675 K. 12 hours of run time at pressures exceeding 15.3 atmospheres, temperatures exceeding 780 K. Over 700 data points were obtained. The assessment of the demonstrated performance revealed the prototype TVC test rig had exceeded all initial expectations. Demonstrated ignition, blow out, and altitude re-light were up to 50% improved over current technology conventional swirl stabilized combustors. NOx emissions were in the range from 40% to 60% of the 1996 ICAO standard. Combustion efficiency at or above 99% was maintained over a 40% wider operating range than a conventional combustor. The performance and operability achieved with this prototype test rig has clearly demonstrated the validity and potential performance payoffs of the TVC concept. This paper will summarize the TVC rectangular sector test rig configurations evaluated as part of this test program, and the performance and operability achieved.
