"Sadly, the Corps rolled out the EABO concept with no good idea how to get to the remote terrain to shoot from, how to resupply it, to medically evacuate Marines, how to keep it concealed, how to defend against missiles, aircraft, enemy Marines, unconventional forces or a rudimentary infantry force, how to keep locals from reporting on it, or how to position vehicles, radars and crew in the restrictive and varied terrains. Perhaps most critical, it focused on missiles with a very short range and has yet, after five years been able to meld it all together to detect, identify, engage and sink a moving warship. It has failed to lay out a template on how to achieve an overlapping and continues belt stretching the distance of the first island chain or redeploy forces to adjust for the maneuver options available to Chinese ships if you wish to herd them into kill zones."

The U.S. military is using one of its main data analytics and common operational picture tools as part of its response efforts to aid in Hurricane Helene relief. Several active-duty components, defense agencies and the National Guard are aiding in the relief efforts as requested by the states affected under what’s known as “defense support to civil authorities,” which allow the military to be employed domestically when asked. The Maven Smart System — an AI-enabled platform for geospatial visualization of data that was designed for use by combatant commands and other units to facilitate battlespace awareness, global integration, contested logistics, joint fires and targeting workflows — is being deployed to aid in the relief efforts. https://lnkd.in/eaGrR4n7

Boots on the Ground: Ready When It Counts 🥾 The 78 CEG was in the midst of their first Air Force Material Command Combat Readiness Inspection at Robins AFB, Georgia, when hurricanes Helene and Milton struck. 78 CEG Airmen, in collaboration with fellow units on base, quickly rose to the occasion, demonstrating to nearby civilian communities that they could count on the installation's support during critical times. Robins AFB served as a primary Installation Support Base for 17 days, quickly deploying personnel and resources to support disaster response efforts. With assistance from the Defense Logistics Agency and the 78th Logistics Readiness Squadron, the 78 CEG deployed 77 FEMA fuel and support vehicles along with four command center vehicles to deliver critical aid across four states impacted by the hurricane. The operation faced significant logistical challenges and required meticulous strategic coordination; however, despite these obstacles, the squadron's success and effectiveness highlighted the value of their commitment to contingency training. These exercises not only enhanced the Airmen's expertise but instilled a deep sense of confidence in their preparedness, fostering a strong foundation of resilience to rely on during real-world operations. The 78 CEG's dedication to teamwork, adaptability, and continuous growth fosters a collective pride that ensures the squadron remains ready when it counts, committed to serving both the mission and the community, regardless of the challenges they face.
