#1 I can't get a clear picture on it. Some said it has great capabilities. Others said it was a dog in the field.

#2 Certainly no dog, in my opinion anyway. Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS) is or was a heavily contractor supported proprietary system that copied capabilities from other tools rather than buying licenses and opening the door to tools. DCGS was not soldier friendly, but due to the sunken costs and contractor tail, is very Pentagon friendly.
