Yes, they're Army-specific resources.Originally Posted by Xenophon
AKO = Army Knowledge On-line. Every service member has an AKO log-in, that provides access to most of these resources. "The Army's Enterprise Portal, Army Knowledge Online (AKO), is a primary component of The Army Knowledge Management (AKM) strategy and The Army Transformation. As the single point of entry into a robust and scalable knowledge management system, AKO is strategically changing the way The Army does business. By enabling greater knowledge sharing among Army communities, AKM fosters improved decision dominance by commanders and business stewards in the battlespace, organizations, and Army's mission processes." Sounds great, but it's a loooong way from that point right now. But it does maintain a HUGE amount of information readily accessible in its numerous "Knowledge Center" files.
BCKS = Battle Command Knowledge System. Pretty good mix of professional discussion forums linked with subject-specific FOUO-and-below document archives. Great potential although not used nearly enough; still working out kinks in the system.
CALL = Center for Army Lessons Learned. Self explanatory - great resource.
