Real-world construction projects that enhance training capabilities are the mission of the engineering readiness-specific exercise, Resolute Castle. The joint exercise led by the U.S. Army Europe and Africa, brings together the United States Army Reserve, Army National Guard, and engineering units from allied and partner nations. Designed to reinforce regional partnerships while promoting interoperability with host nation forces, existing infrastructure is improved and relationships are strengthened. Ready Now... Shaping Tomorrow!

TechFlow's Pioneering Innovation Shapes the Future of #EVCharging for the U.S. Military The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has a massive fleet of over 170,000 vehicles classified as non-tactical, ranging in size from sedans to buses, and only a tiny fraction are EVs today. To meet its 2035 deadline and secure the long-term success of EV adoption in the U.S. #military, the #DoD must quickly develop state-of-the-art #charginginfrastructure specifically tailored to the distinctive requirements and massive scale of its upcoming #EVfleet.

Happy birthday to the US Air Force! The U.S. Air Force was officially founded on 18 September 1947, and in the decades since it has established itself as an air force second-to-none. Between 1909 -- when that the US military purchased its first aircraft -- and 1947, the U.S. Air Force did not exist as a separate and independent military service organization. It went through a series of designations: Aeronautical Section, Signal Corps (1909); Aviation Section, Signal Corps (1914); United States Army Air Service (1918); United States Army Air Corps (1926), and United States Army Air Forces (1941). WWII illustrated the value of airpower, and the need to change the basic organization of the US Military Forces. The result was the creation of a single Department of Defense with a strong Joint Chiefs of Staff with Army, Navy, and Air Force chiefs. In 1947 President Truman signed the National Security Act which established this new defense organization, and along with it the creation of the US Air Force as an independent service, equal to the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy.  #proudveteran #goairforce #aimhigh #higherfurtherfaster

Head in the clouds. The term Cloud ☁️ has a number of different meanings now. Today my head was literally in the clouds as was the rest of the C-130 aircrew. It was planned and intentional. We trusted our planning, coordination, equipment, and instruments. This trust is critical as is effective communications. As you can see it is very difficult to orient yourself when in the clouds. It takes critical awareness and attention to detail. Sometimes I find myself in the “clouds” unplanned or unintentional. I think it is fair to say we all do at times. When we find ourselves in the clouds, Acknowledge it and Accept it. This will help you Process in the moment to Plan to take appropriate Action. A-A-P-P-A https://lnkd.in/eEkv7DGV When you find yourself in the clouds believe in yourself, communicate with yourself and others, trust your “instruments” and your means to get back on solid ground. A special shout out to all Air National Guard, U.S. Army and Army National Guard, United States Air Force, Army, U.S. Navy Reserve and Marine Corps reservists. Many of us were on the grind this weekend getting it done. Keep it up. Your efforts, dedication and sacrifices are appreciated. Take time to remind yourself of this and keep your mind strong, healthy, prepared and balanced to deal with the “clouds”.

This helps visualize next steps.

Keller Army Community Hospital recognizes the 76th Birthday of the United States Air Force!!!   Between 1909 – when the US military purchased its first aircraft – and 1947, the U.S. Air Force did not exist as a separate and independent military service organization. It went through a series of designations: Aeronautical Section, Signal Corps (1909); Aviation Section, Signal Corps (1914); United States Army Air Service (1918); United States Army Air Corps (1926), and United States Army Air Forces (1941).   World War II illustrated the value of airpower, and the need to change the basic organization of the U.S. Military Forces. The result was the creation of a single Department of Defense with a strong Joint Chiefs of Staff with Army, Navy, and Air Force chiefs.   In 1947, President Truman signed the National Security Act which established this new defense organization, and along with it the creation of the U.S. Air Force as an independent service, equal to the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy.   Today, the U.S. Air Force includes more than 689,000 personnel – Airmen and civilians – who work to support all aspects of airpower, which includes five core functions: air superiority; global strike; rapid global mobility; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance; and command and control.   Keller Army Community Hospital recognizes those who “Fly, Fight, and Win…Airpower Anytime, Anywhere.” #USAirForce

Latest Joint Forces Quarterly—great article by Dr. Kristin Mulready-Stone from Naval War College—visiting professor at Army War College—about outcomes-based assessment in PME. Starts on p. 30. If you care about PME and assessment, even the future of PME, this is THE article you need.
