The Maryland Army National Guard is borrowing some technology from the active-duty Army to fight the COVID-19 virus.
The Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier based at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Aberdeen, Maryland, is providing a mission tracking and communications application at no cost to the Maryland Guard.
The application, called CRSSTALK, stands for Contingency Response Situational Awareness/Situational Understanding Tactical Applications Leader Kit. It allows Army leaders to view a Soldier’s current location, past location, and route of travel. From a separate location, leaders could build and communicate a mission to Soldiers on ground, while allowing a forum to upload pictures and continued correspondence. The device itself is not a military device; it is a commercial phone. First responders can also share accounts with other agencies like the National Guard.(Photo by U.S. Army National Guard Sgt.
