MODERNIZING THE NETWORK


A departing network PM discusses challenges and must -haves as the Army moves toward its one network vision.


by Amy Walker Col. Greg Coile C


ol. Greg Coile has been serving as the project manager (PM) for Tacti- cal Network, assigned to the Program Office for Command, Control and Communications – Tactical (PEO C3T), for the last four years. His program office provides the Army’s tactical network, supporting commanders’ on-the-

It calls for them to work seamlessly and cohesively, blurring the lines of organizational boundaries to deliver innovative inte- grated capabilities more efficiently and effectively. No matter what organization you are assigned to, we are all working toward a common goal—a single, unified network that
