#NationalSecurity, South Korea has banned the use of the iPhone in the military. Recently, a group of senior South Korean army officers, who wished to remain anonymous, told the media that the South Korean Air Force headquarters posted an announcement on the army's internal web server on April 11. The announcement was more or less along the lines of the Republic of Korea Army's order to completely ban, as of June 1, any device capable of recording audio and unable to control the corresponding function through a third-party application (app), including the iPhone among the regulated targets. According to the document, the decision to ban iPhones in the military came from joint meetings held by the headquarters of the Army, Navy and Air Force, located at Gyeryongdae in South Chungcheong Province. The document also read, "There has been an ongoing review regarding the potential extension of this ban to all subordinate units," with the Army headquarters having conducted the ban on a trial basis since April. If the ban is extended, it will likely go beyond the Gyeryongdae area to encompass all other units across the nation. Currently, about 10,000 personnel, including some 6,000 officers, are estimated to be on duty at the Gyeryongdae defense center alone. For security reasons, the exact number is not disclosed to the public. If the ban is extended to all subordinate units, it would affect almost 500,000 military personnel. According to the Korea Institute for Defense Analyses, a think tank under the Defense Ministry, the total number of military personnel is 499,8000 as of 2022, including 365,000 in the Army, 69,800 in the Navy and 65,000 in the Air Force. https://lnkd.in/dBa495Wr

#China's growing inroads in making #electronic #displays could create #nationalsecurity concerns for the United States by making it dependent on China for an essential component in #military #technologies, that is according to an upcoming report by Joe McReynolds and Pamir Consulting, LLC's James Mulvenon which was covered by Reuters' Stephen Nellis this week. "#Displays are the New #Batteries," something for China watchers to keep in mind in the coming weeks and months, particularly in light of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) recent work on #CATL.

TL;DR: The Pentagon's investment in smart depots is a promising step toward modernizing military logistics. While there's room for improvement, these technological advancements are crucial for ensuring the timely delivery of supplies and enhancing operational readiness. The successful implementation of smart hubs in Albany, Georgia, and California demonstrates the potential of cutting-edge technology to revolutionize military supply chain management. Fulfilld's take: Little known fact: Almost all of the world's most innovative and disruptive technologies (#GPS, the #Internet, #RenewableEnergy (Wind), #Smartphones, etc.) were born from the United States Federal Government innovation. Now warehouses!!! LOVE IT! Keep innovating USA!! #BeFulfilld
