The new system will update CBRN defense for aircrews, replacing the current 66P legacy system.
Once approved, it will be fielded to all air crews across fixed wing, rotary wing, ejection seat and large frame aircrafts across the DoD.
“This item will service air crews for the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, Army and Air Force, so our testing phase is critical,” said 2nd Lt. Gunnar Kral, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, AF CBRN Defense Systems Branch systems engineer.
The new system is a two-piece undergarment that is lighter, offering better mobility, and is more breathable, which lowers the thermal burden on warfighters. With this, air crews will be able to stay in the suit longer and do their jobs with less heat burden or chances of heat casualties.
After 15 years of being the center of all things Army education, the GoArmyEd portal will be no more.
Since April 2006, GoArmyEd has been the Armyâs online gateway for Tuition Assistance requests, online management of Soldiersâ college education classes and programs, and a portal
providing access to all that the Army Continuing Education System offers.
On Feb. 12, GoArmyEd will have a permanent sunset, leading to the migration of the Armyâs new education system, ArmyIgnitED.
âOver the past 15 years, Army Education has grown beyond the capabilities of the GoArmyEd platform,â Michael Engen, Fort Hood education services officer, said. âThis is the primary reason for the development and launch of ArmyIgnitED.â
