America's Waterway Watch 2.0
Following the inspiration of our illustrious Commandant (iCommandant), and our friends at the The Automated Mutual Assistance Vessel Rescue System (AMVER), America's Waterway Watch (AWW) is hitting the blogosphere!
Our blog is not just going to be about AWW; we are going to take the opportunity to use this medium to discuss a wide range of issues facing the maritime community, especially in regards to security. We urge our readers to leave comments and participate in the discussion. Our goal is facilitate a spirited dialouge on some of the most pressing issues in the maritime domain and how AWW can be used to address those issues.
This blog is only the one step in our foray into the Social Media realm; please feel free to join our fansite on Facebook, and we've just recently joined Twitter, You can also find a wealth of information on our static website.
We look forward to working with you!

Ryan, How do I get a copy of the AWW video on the right for use in classroom training of new CAN members in D8-Coastal?
