  • Thank you for getting this going. Now, if a few more PMSWG's will list "Lessons Learned" as a result of 1) participating in this project and 2) participating in USCG-AMS committee activity (exercises, drills, monthly meetings, etc.) we can get on with deliverable 7.

    I would also recommend that each PMSWG'er sign on to www.LLIS.com
    It will take a few days to gain access, but then you will be able to access quite a bit of material when you use their search engine using the key words Maritime Security. Most of the hits are documents and papers rather than Lessons Learn afteraction reports, but we need to start somewhere.

    The only other useful portal for maritimers is www.homeport.mil and much of this information is non classified and very generic. All of it will be useful, however, when integrating maritime security material into existing maritime academy curriculum, in my option.

  • Sorry! The LLIS web page is LLIS.dhs.gov

    I see the LLIS as a useful global information resourse and perhaps Homeport. uscg.mil as a local resource regarding each academy's COTP.

    Both web sites require a user to register before they can logon. This may take a while. I still haven't received authorization to use Homeport after registering a week ago.

    To make maritime security curriculum development work for the academies, our own dedicated web site where we can share Lessons Learned from our own experiences with AMS and USCG exercises and drill will probably be most beneficial ,

    Please return the survey that was sent out to gather information regarding academy participation with AMS.

    Also, let us know about other "after action" reports that have been submitted either to AMS or USCG regarding security related activity for either port or vessel.
