| OKLAHOMA CITY CHAPTER CHAPTER - Aug 14, 2009 |
In August, the chapter teamed with the Combat Communications Steering Group (CCSG), 3rd Combat Communications Group, Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, to host the chapter's annual TechNet and Scholarship Golf Tournament fundraiser in coordination with the CCSG's conference and technology demonstration. The events provided an opportunity for the local military, government and industry communities to view the latest capabilities. Vendors displayed a variety of technological products that increase data throughput to the tactical arena while simultaneously reducing the size and weight of the equipment and reducing the size of the personnel needed to operate the equipment. More than 30 vendors attended the event, which raised more than $3,000 for the chapter's scholarship programs. |
