Topic a little, feeling faded: United States soldier also suffered troubled Smartphone-US military, smart phones-IT news

Smartphones are occupied more and more of ordinary people. When we began to focus on whether the phone has so much energy that faded when relatives and friends around us--the world's high-tech army-also in mobile phones reflect on the impact of the fighting.

United States Military Academy at West point instructor at the Institute of modern war major John Spencer on September 27 in United States leading military website DefenseOne issued a pointed out that team-military organizations and military operations--are a source of strength was around electronic equipment damage.

? United States soldiers in the use of smart phones

"The topic a little, feeling light"

In March 2010, the United States Army announced that "the army" challenge project, opened the prelude of the American Smartphone development plan in the new era. According to the United States media reported United States China Defense Advanced research projects Agency (DARPA) is a research and development team spent many years as an "ecosystem"--called "conversion applications" (TA)-project laid the Foundation work, which also changed the United States fought.

The Liberation Army daily reported on June 16, smart phone, American soldiers have to be able to own launched mini-UAV and the robot by remote control, can also all within 2 km of the access to satellite images and aerial and ground reconnaissance and intelligence information, and understand the action of 10-20 comrades in real time.

In addition, also in fire-control system for a smart phone for depth testing, it is understood that it is able to target enemy coordinates accurately measure wind speed, gravity, speed and other small factors which influence the trajectory of the Earth, fixed firing, artillery and missile attack and remote control, accuracy is very high.

"In addition to strong field accessibility, as well as enhance the potential of battlefield intelligence, smart phones to barracks no longer enclosed, open horizons of officers and men, thereby enriching the cultural life in the barracks. "Foreign studies Nanjing University of international relations Deputy Director Fang Xiaozhi surging on news of the Center, said.

However, problems also come.

United States CNN website reported on August 11, United States Marine Corps Commander General luobote·Neile said publicly that smartphones are for his soldiers to become "soft", he wants to restrict the use of Marines on the phone. Both for during the fight for security reasons – military movement with regard to personal information, it is hoped that Marines don't distract too much in the outside world, to increase the return to life in the camp.

Recently, the media also reports on issues related to China's military. September 20, PLA published has on 39th set mission army a Infantry Brigade camp "bow family" of survey, results displayed: 52.5% of soldiers weekend play phone of time are in 7 hours above; 39.4% of soldiers on phone network has rely on, a to weekend will from "iron soldiers" into has "quiet of Casanova"; 3.6% of soldiers admitted in provides of time outside peek phone.

Has been a traffic monitor for 10 years with six Squad, four Master Sergeant Yang Jintang with respect, "with Smartphones, topic a little, feeling light, shallow, gap much. "He said, comrades in the class before playing poker, watching movies and talking, feeling happy. Now no one who spoke, each playing their own, sitting face to face less time, replies to strangers on the Internet are very excited.

Cohesion of officers and soldiers on the battlefield is essential

Chinese military commentator miles rock, "said a person relies too heavily on phone's biggest problem is not really integrated into the side of the group, so through the network to find similar. ”

In Afghanistan and Iraq barracks, in order to alleviate the soldiers on the battlefield, tension and the tedium of camp life, the Americans tried to introduce some elements of everyday life to boost morale. For example, American troops embedded with many elements of daily life, such as smart phones, Internet cafes, fast food restaurants, etc.

Major Spencer believes that this consideration is more based on the soldiers ' personal needs, while ignoring the need for team building itself. Since soldiers ' personal concerns online is outside the camp, such as social networking, gaming and entertainment, once contact with too many factors outside the barracks, is not conducive to the construction of team spirit.

Build strong bonds between comrades is considered the most important mission of camp life. Spencer major, citing a study by the US military says soldiers between closely related and solidarity was their win on the battlefield and survive the most important factor.

Military Academy at West point, for example, participants in today's training, studying and living with 150 years ago was no different: they have family dinners and other comrades of the same company in the form of a meal. This is because, there are sociological studies have shown that, in the collective life, sharing food is a psychological a sense of integration. Therefore, for graduating West Point cadets in the new army officers will no longer be required dining together with the comrades, he was quite regrettable.

However major Spencer also said that, Commandant Admiral Naylor to efforts to ban the Smartphone is the Smartphone the negative effects of most natural reaction, however, taking into account the coming of the information age, as well as practical work-life needs of officers and soldiers, with simple weapons ban can hardly produce the desired results and lack of long-term basis.

Miles rocks that "wants to overcome the destruction of camp link for smart phones, a need to consider the camp soldiers attracted to real life problems, then consider how to build online military camp culture, refuse the evil and the good. For example, can phone in the camp online organization of interest below the line activities to cultivate the spirit of teamwork, the camp can also be part of the traditional recreational game online. ”

话题少了，感情淡了：美国大兵也遭遇智能手机困扰 - 美军,智能手机 - IT资讯

智能手机正在占用普通人越来越多的时间。当我们开始关注手机是否占有太多的精力以至于淡忘了身边的亲友时，美军——这支世界上科技含量最高的军队——也在就手机对军队战斗力的冲击进行反思。

美国西点军校现代战争研究所的教官约翰·斯宾塞少校9月27日在美国知名军事网站DefenseOne发文指出，团队凝聚力——军事组织与军事行动的力量源泉——正在被身边的电子设备损害。

▲美国士兵在使用智能手机

“话题少了，感情淡了”

2010年3月，美国陆军宣布“军队应用”挑战项目，拉开了新时期美军智能手机研发计划的序幕。据美国媒体报道，美国中国国防部高级研究计划局(DARPA)一支研发团队花了多年时间为一个“应用生态系统”——名为“转换应用程序”（TA）——的项目打下了基础工作，而该项目也改变了美国作战的方式。

据《解放军报》6月16日报道，通过智能手机，美军士兵已能够对自己发射的微型无人机和机器人进行遥控，也可以获得周围2公里范围内所有卫星图像及空中、地面的侦察情报资料，并实时了解10-20位战友的行动态势。

此外，美军还在对一款智能手机的微型火控系统进行深度测试，据悉它能锁定敌军坐标，精确测算风速、重力、地球转速等微小因素对弹道的影响，修正射击诸元，并遥控火炮与导弹攻击，精度极高。

“除了强大的战场辅助功能，以及提升战场智能化水平的潜力，智能手机也使军营不再封闭，开阔了官兵的视野，进而丰富了军营的文化生活。”南京国际关系学院外军研究中心副主任方晓志对澎湃新闻介绍说。

不过，问题也随之而来。

美国CNN网站8月11日报道称，美国海军陆战队司令罗伯特·内勒上将公开表示，智能手机正在让他的士兵变得“软弱”，他想要限制陆战队员对手机的使用。这既是出于战斗期间对安全的考虑——军人行踪与个人信息方面，也是希望陆战队员不要在外部世界分心太多，能够更多地回归到军营生活。

就在最近，中国军事媒体也对相关问题进行了报道。9月20日，《解放军报》刊发了对第39集团军某步兵旅军营“低头族”的调查，结果显示：52.5%的官兵周末玩手机的时间都在7小时以上；39.4%的官兵对手机网络有依赖，一到周末便从“铁血战士”变成了“安静的美男子”；3.6%的战士承认在规定的时间外偷看手机。

已当了10年班长的通信连六班班长、四级军士长杨金堂直言，“有了智能手机，话题少了，感情淡了，关系浅了，隔阂多了。”他表示，以前在班里战友们一起打扑克、看电影和聊天，感觉其乐融融。现在谁也不搭理谁，各玩各的，坐在一起面对面交流时间少了，对网络上陌生人的回帖却异常兴奋。

官兵凝聚力在战场至关重要

中国军事评论员千里岩表示，“一个人过于依赖手机最大的问题在于不能真正融入身边的群体，所以通过网络去寻找同类。”

在阿富汗与伊拉克的军营里，为了缓解其官兵在战场上的紧张情绪和军营生活的单调乏味，美军试图引入一些社会日常生活的要素来提振士气。譬如，美军植入了许多日常生活元素，如智能手机、网吧、快餐店等。

斯宾塞少校认为，这种考虑更多地是基于士兵个人的需要，却忽略了团队建设本身的必要性。由于士兵个人的网上关注点往往在军营之外，如社交、游戏和娱乐，一旦与军营之外的因素产生过多联系，就不利于团队精神的建构。

在战友之间建立坚强的纽带被视为军营生活最重要的使命之一。斯宾塞少校援引美军的一项研究称，官兵之间的紧密联系与团结协作是他们在战场上赢得胜利并存活下来最重要的因素。

以西点军校为例，学员们今日的训练、学习与生活同150年前没有什么不同：他们以家庭聚餐的形式与同一连队的其他战友共同进餐。这是因为，有社会学的研究表明，在集体生活中，共同分享食物会使人们心理产生一种融入感。因此，对于西点学员毕业进入新的部队担任军官后不再被要求与战友共同用餐一事，他还感到颇为遗憾。

不过斯宾塞少校也表示，海军陆战队司令内勒上将想要禁止智能手机的努力是应对智能手机的负面影响最自然的反应，但是，考虑到信息时代的来临以及官兵实际工作与生活的需要，简单的一道大规模禁令很难起到理想的效果，也缺乏长期推行的基础。

千里岩认为，“想克服智能手机对军营纽带的破坏，一则需要考虑解决军营现实生活对士兵吸引力的问题，二则考虑如何建设网上军营文化，弃恶扬善。比如，可以通过手机在网上组织军营内的线下兴趣活动来培养团队协作精神，也可将军营内的部分传统文娱比赛网上化。”
