Snake Eater (film)
''Snake Eater'' is an action thriller film directed by George Erschbamer, starring Lorenzo Lamas, Josie Bell, Robert Scott and Ronnie Hawkins. Released on March 10, 1989, it was Lamas' first action film, and Cinépix's attempt at the type of action vehicle that was popular at the time. Harkening back to the Canadian company's exploitation roots, it infused the veteran vigilante storyline found in many contemporary films with " hicksploitation" elements, which many reviewers found distasteful but did not prevent its commercial success. Three more installments followed between 1991 and 1997. It is the first installment in the ''Snake Eater'' film series. Plot Jack "Soldier" Kelly is a New York City police officer and Vietnam veteran. Having served in the Marine Special Forces (nicknamed the "Snake Eaters"), he has retained a penchant for unorthodox methods and makeshift traps. Kelly learns that his parents have been killed and his sister abducted in rural Tennessee, and travels t ...

Snake Eater (identification System)
Snake Eater is a military identification system and database developed by Computer Deductions, Inc. for the United States Army. The system allows military personnel to track and identify terrorists and insurgents in much the same way that mobile data terminals are used by police officers for criminals. Development began in late 2006 after being suggested by Major Owen West, a Marine Corps officer serving in the Anbar Province of Iraq. Snake Eater gives military personnel access to a database including names, addresses, known associates, and other pieces of information. This information, previously collected in homemade spreadsheets or on pieces of paper, can now be accessed and expanded through hand-held devices. Funding for the project was originally provided by the Spirit of America project, a civilian organization that advocates support of U.S. troops abroad. Spirit of America provided $30,000 for the development of a prototype model, with Goldman Sachs contributing another ...
