Finally, Globalstar Inc. (NYSEMKT:GSAT), lost -1.42% Friday.

At the onset of the Atlantic hurricane season, Globalstar, has declared that it has once again teamed up with Lt. General Russel L. Honore, U.S. Army (Stepped down) in an initiative to raise awareness of the irreplaceable role that non-terrestrial based communications, such as Globalstar’s satellite phone solutions, play in emergency and disaster relief situations. In the devastating aftermath of hurricanes Katrina, Rita and more recently, Sandy, satellite communications providers like Globalstar played an essential part in enabling disaster recovery, search and rescue operations and restoring basic services to the public. Lightweight handheld satellite phones and PABX-compatible fixed phone solutions can be rapidly deployed to meet almost any interoperability application involving 2-way radios, telephones, and data networks.

In the aftermath of these recent events, businesses now routinely incorporate satellite phones in their disaster recovery and backup communications planning. Further, as a direct result of Hurricane Katrina, governors have put a renewed focus on statewide disaster preparedness programs, and interoperable emergency communications are a required component of the National Preparedness Aim put forth by the Department of Homeland Security in September 2011. Known for setting the standard in high quality voice and mobile data communications, Globalstar has already been adopted as the preferred statewide backup communications system in many parts of the country.

Honore is best known as an expert on global disaster preparedness. He led the joint task force responsible for the massive search-and-rescue mission and restoration of order in New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast following Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Additionally, he served in a variety of planning and response operations, counting Hurricanes Floyd, Isabel, Charley, Frances and Ivan, and has supported U.S. military emergency response abroad.

Globalstar, Inc. provides mobile voice and data communications services through satellite worldwide. The company offers duplex two-way voice and data products, counting mobile voice and data satellite communications services and equipment for remote business continuity, recreational, emergency response, and other applications.
