Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s Post

This is an outstanding list of priorities. This is what the Space Force should have. Nowhere in here does the Navy say it's a support force for the other services. Nowhere in here does it say it relies on others to do it's missions. It's a warfighting service that deters and projects combat, warfighting power. The CNO has provided the example for the CSO. Let's replace the "Comprehensive Strategy for the Space Force" with a spacepower version of this!!! National Institute for Deterrence Studies Peter Garretson Peter Marquez https://lnkd.in/eUd23ax3

For the function of setting up goals and passing statements of value transcends its domain. While it is true that science, to the extent of its grasp of causative connections, may reach important conclusions as to the compatibility and incompatibility of goals and evaluations, the independent and fundamental definitions regarding goals and values remain beyond science's reach.” -Known-unknowns, 2024- https://lnkd.in/gzq7jfVm #SemperFi #oldkockco.

Reflecting on two decades in uniform: Commitment is the cornerstone of victory. As a Navy veteran, this principle has not only shaped me in service but also transformed my approach in the civilian sector. What enduring lesson has your profession taught you?

Why We Train So Freaking Hard: https://lnkd.in/erw9mgTV

I have long said sailors are mariners and warfighters first and foremost. So naturally, I find a lot to like in the below from the US Navy Office of the Chief of Naval Operations. Clear, succinct and on point. Clarity of purpose and a clear-eyed vision of the threat is important. Of course, a conflict in the Indo-Pacific would be catastrophic and we must do all we can to prevent it where possible. But failing to prepare for it or acknowledge it simply undermines deterrence. If conflict is to arise in the Indo-Pacific it will be fought across all domains, military and non-military but geography dictates it will likely be very much maritime in nature. We must prepare our maritime warfighters for this potential, and we must do so now, and hope in doing so we bolster our deterrence strategy.

Mastering one's situation and controlling the circumstances, is how the captain of the ship sails through rough seas/waters. Strong sails supported by 'All-Hands-on-Deck' - "AHOY" Admiral EE Okpa - Texas Navy Association.

Canada used to be a small county but with -40m people we can no longer afford to have a small town attitude to national security Last week the UK Royal Navy introduced its sixth Astute-class attack submarine named HMS Agamemnon. This state-of-the-art nuclear-powered submarine is set to be launched later this year. This is vessel 6 of 7 being introduced into service to protect UK national security. There is very little that surface vessels or land assets can do to detect or neutralise such a fleet. Canada should follow Australia into an upgraded AUKUS agrement to reinforce like minded democratic institutions. Canada has the talent and resources to buildout a world class submarine fleet worthy of this great country. The Astute submarines are built in the North-west of England in a not so small town called Barrow-in-Furness and the resources, skills and experience are well within the capabilities of any of our sea facing provinces. As the Astute program winds down in the UK perhaps a commercial alliance to build Astutes in Canada is necessary?
