My name is
Henry Earl Lewis. I'm an information systems
technician. I'm currently stationed at Mine
Warfare Training Center, Ingleside, Texas.
Information systems technicians
are formerly radiomen. What we do is work on
a command's LAN system. [LAN stands for Local
Area Network and refers to the communications
system within a given location.] Deals with
downloading message traffic from a secure gate
guard and putting them on the LAN system so
everyone in the command can view them.
I'm working
with radio systems, communication systems, give
the command electronic e-mail capabilities where
they can go out through the command and talk
to everyone or send messages to each and everyone
on the command without having to physically
call them up on the phone or go by their offices.
We set up access to e-mail,
Internet accounts. We also do training for them.
We're at a training facility so we provide them
with LAN (Local Area Network) capability where
they can access information through other command--
training commands and it will be ready available
for the students. And we go around troubleshooting
ADP problems that people in the command have.
ADP. Automated Data Processing.
And whenever someone in the command has a computer
problem, were it printers, software devices
inside a computer, or hardware or printers,
internal drives or whatever, we'll
go around troubleshoot them, fix them, and get
them back online as soon as possible.
