LTC Jonathan L. Adams - 170 MP BN CO - Georgia Army National Guard March 2014
Reason: Responding to the call of the Georgia Governor and rendering aid, assistance and support resulting in the saving of property and reduction of damages or suffering during Operation Patriot Snowball Story: During the snowstorm earlier this year I was called to active duty. While at the Decatur armory I noticed that there was a serious problem tracking assists in the field. So I developed and deployed a simple web based GIS that tracked vehicles, missions, supply points, etc. This gave the Battle Captain a quick and easy way to see who/what could be deployed where. Before that, trucks would come all the way back to base to be re-‐tasked, sometimes driving by where they would be sent back out to. The system had to be simple to use and rock solid, as soldiers had to use it with only a 5min crash course.
