The Army’s top generals for cyber, space and special operations forces met to discuss the Triad partnership and how they can further develop, operationalize and institutionalize the collaboration.   “It is a ‘Modern-Day Triad’ designed to converge unique accesses, capabilities, authorities, understanding, and effects in many of the same ways we have implemented combined arms operations,” said Lt. Gen. Jonathon P. Braga, commander of U.S. Army Special Operations Command.   The commands have already developed a unified exercise, experimentation and engagement plan for fiscal years 2024 and 2025.   Read more about the Space-Cyber-SOF Triad from U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command at https://lnkd.in/eTSR9SzE.

"The days of us dragging along a unique Army network to conduct any operation is over." Insightful quote (see below) from the US Army Deputy Chief of Staff, G-6 The purpose of a military network is to move information to where it needs to be, in the format/presentation it needs to be in, to optimize decision-making at all levels, and therefore give a "decision-advantage" to our side. Hence it is said that "winning in the decision space is winning in the battlespace." The question is, with the growing complexity of warfare and exponential growth of information being generated from all sources (military and public), can we still win in the decision space if we are limited by the boundaries of traditional military networks? Or is there a strategic, decision-advantage to be gained by supplementing, or reinforcing these (still necessary) traditional military networks with much more agile, modern, cloud-enabled capabilities? I believe so (I would not have picked my new line of work if I didn't!) Thoughts?

This #MemorialDay, we pay tribute to everyone who died while serving the U.S. Armed Forces. But, I would be remiss if I didn’t also talk about the incredibly hard and unfair transition to civilian life hundreds of thousands of survivors undergo each year. Did you know that despite comprising 5.8% of the labor force, veterans experience a lower labor force participation rate compared to nonveterans? BUT, we also need to discuss how the U.S. military has historically targeted on underrepresented populations for service. In fact, a Dec. 2022 The New York Times report highlighted how thousands of public high school students in majority poor, Black and Brown districts are funneled into the U.S. military’s Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program. How can we better support our veterans in their transition to civilian life, while also acknowledging the innate problems with the U.S. “War Machine” complex? Let’s discuss in the comments below. #MemorialDay #Veterans #TransitiontoCivilianLife #JenniferTardyConsulting
