Digital Angel Corporation (Amex:DOC), an advanced technology company in the field of rapid and accurate identification, location tracking, and condition monitoring of high-value assets, announced today that its OuterLink subsidiary has won a $3.2 million contract from the South Carolina Army National Guard. The pilot project will demonstrate the capability of OuterLink's satellite-based Automatic Flight Following System (AFFS) to communicate with helicopter and ground vehicle fleets at the McEntire National Guard Base at Eastover, SC.
