Army National Guard Sgt. Stephanie Peavy, 244th Army Liaison Team from Chicago, works with a "Life Ring" cell phone being demonstrated at the Coalition Warrior Interoperability Demonstration in Colorado Springs June 15. CWID is part exercise, part vendor demonstration, where companies offering new technologies can demonstrate their products in a realistic environment. The Life Ring is a cell phone system that combines a GPS and satellite communications, allowing continuous communication and tracking through a G3 network cell phone regardless of conditions on the ground. This allows first responders in a disaster situation to maintain contact with their organization leadership even if cell towers in the area have been destroyed.
