    wireTHE April 2014 www.royalsignals.mod.uk The Magazine of The Royal Corps of Signals ROYAL SIGNALS INSTITUTION Deane-Drummond Prize Essay Competition 2014 (Closing Date - 31st July 2014) 1st Prize - £1000 2nd Prize - £500 3rd Prize - £250 Context: “Operations in Afghanistan have served to highlight the vital role of information on the modern battlefield. Indeed, the richness of the operational information now routinely delivered at all levels of command down to sub-unit and below has fundamentally changed the information landscape to such an extent that it may be time to re-examine the current division of responsibilities for information management (IM).”. Question: Should all information necessarily be treated in the same way; which aspects of the information landscape belong to commanders and their staffs, and which are best left to R SIGNALS personnel? The essay should demonstrate understanding of the IM challenges and the steps to be taken to mitigate against them, highlighting specific recommendations for R SIGNALS. Rules of the Competition: Entrants must be serving (regular or reserve) members of the R SIGNALS or the QG SIGNALS. Essays should be between 1500 – 2500 words and submitted in electronic format. Classified matters must not be included. References and quotes must be in accordance with the Harvard System of Referencing. Essays should be sent to the Corps Adjt under unit arrangements.
