TNVC – Night Goggles Inc Mini DVR Recording System

Thursday, July 30th, 2015

TThe NGI Mini DVR Recording System allows users to record footage directly through their thermal imaging system. The Mini DVR is powered by a rechargeable Li-Ion battery for up to 5 hours of continuous playback. It features an onboard 2.5″ 960×240 LCD screen with real time display, and records either 640×480 or 320×240 footage at 30fps, with date and time stamp.

This Is What LPTA Gets You

Thursday, July 30th, 2015

As you may recall from our recent article on the Soldier Protection System – Torso and Extremity Protection system, one of the awardees of the “Lowest Price Technically Acceptable” contracts for its manufacture is Hawk Protection Incorporated whose Headquarters’ address is listed on their website as: 8362 Pines Boulevard # 280, Pembroke Pines, FL 33024.

We googled the address which got us to scratching our heads.

Here is a photo of the front entrance to Hawk Protection Incorporated’s US Headquarters.

I wonder where they put all of the sewing machines.

“A Warrior’s Path : Lessons In Leadership” by Robert Trivino

Thursday, July 30th, 2015

Rob Trivino is a Retired US Army Special Operations Veteran and owner of Evergreen Mountain LLC. Now, he’s also the author of the newly released book, “A Warrior’s Path : Lessons In Leadership”.

Here is his description of the book:

This is my personal journey through one of the greatest warrior and leadership cultures of today, which ultimately provided me with defining leadership characteristics and the skills of a serious warrior. Nobody is born a great leader, they are made through hard work and determination.

My first Indian name given to me by the medicine man when I was a child was Bobcat. As I grew and became a young man, I returned home from my first combat experience and was given my warrior’s name, Evergreen Mountain. I am an American, first and foremost, but I am also a Pueblo and Yaqui Indian. I am a former member of the US Army’s 18th Airborne Corps, 75th Ranger Regiment, and spent most of my career as an operational member of a Special Missions Unit under the United States Army Special Operations Command.

These are some of my most important leadership lessons learned from the battlefield of the war on terror. It is my sincere hope that this book serves as a resource and a compass, providing direction and guidance for individuals seeking or in a leadership position.
