This RallyPoint Space Situation Awareness (SSA)-post recognizes the 460th Space Wing Command Post, which was named the Air Force Space Command, Command Post of the year for 2010. Senior Airman Darlene Slaton was named the AFSPC Command Post Airman of the year; Staff Sgt. Andrea Alvarado was named the AFSPC Command Post NCO of the Year, and Master Sgt. Juan Silva earned the title of AFSPC Command Post Senior NCO of the year.
An extension of the Pentagon's National Military Command Center (NMCC), the national/homeland security role of the command post (CP) is to—ALERT, DIRECT and REPORT. Considered the "nerve center" or "eyes and ears of the commander," the CP is the commander's focal point for mission command (MC) and command and control (C2) communications management of assigned forces during normal day-to-day activities and contingencies or wartime operations.
Command post controller roles and responsibilities tend to vary based on the unit's mission, the MAJCOM the unit is assigned to, and resources assigned to the unit. Regardless of mission variances, what is foundational to each CP controller are mission command (MC) and command and control (C2) data processing and communication functions in the aerospace industry domain.

Read http://www.buckley.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/1041848/athoc-requirements-for-base-members/ The respionse does not address the issue at hand. When recipients should no longer be the target of an alert, the alert system should have the intelligence and automation required to prune the alerts recipient list automatically. This article strikes a chord as our company weekly gets erroneous complaints from end-users thinking Desktop Alert Inc. (http://www.desktopalert.net) is the publisher of these misdirected alerts. If you want to insure you no longer get phone calls and alerts call your Public Affairs office and they will tend to the matter immediately.

First, thank you for your service. The alerts you are receiving are not coming from a Desktop Alert Inc. system. Rather the alerts are coming from an AtHoc technology still used at many Bases and provided by AtHoc Inc.
If you are receiving the alerts by SMS text message, these alerts should stop if you reply to one of the alerts with the word “STOP”. Unfortunately, this will not cancel all of the alerts you may be receiving.
We offer a few suggestions; you can contact your previous installation and ask them to remove your name. We understand that this may be inconvenient since you are no longer at the installation. Working with others in your situation we have found that you can look up the installation on the internet. Most installations list the public affairs (PA) and the Inspector General (IG). Sending an email or calling the PA and IG to request removal from the system is usually VERY effective. If you have the information, you should also contact the Operations Center.
We understand and sympathize with your situation. We receive similar calls and emails every week. It is just unfortunate that we have no direct control over resolving the frustration caused by our competitors unwanted alerts.

Interestingly enough, Buckley owns a Desktop Alert perpetual license at no cost annually but were supplanted by a pay for system. BLUF.
