The Air National Guard application deadline for the US Air Force School of Advanced Air and Space Studies (SAASS) is quickly approaching on 26 September! The Air National Guard gets one slot a year to produce a trained United States Air Force strategist. Now more than ever Acting Director of the Air National Guard Maj Gen Duke Pirak needs School of Advanced Air and Space Studies graduates to help optimize the Total Force for GPC by fully leveraging the Air National Guard. We’re at a pivotal moment in history. We need all hands. Please help spread the word about SAASS to promising junior officers and apply our brightest minds to the nation’s most pressing strategic problems. BTW: the Washington Air National Guard has been filling far more than our share of SAASS school slots over the last few years and it’s getting a little too strategic out here; the weight of our bookcases alone is creating a slight wobble in the earth’s rotation. It would be great to see the other 53 step up! Hit me up if you have questions. #strategy #nationalsecurity #natsec #nationalguard

As we approach our independence day, I want to draw attention to this important OpEd by Douglas Schiess and David Miller. Most of my audience knows I am an advocate for the responsible use of space. This article describes why it's important and what global competitors are doing to threaten world wide use of the space domain. It also discusses why #SpaceForce exists and more importantly, what Space Force is doing to ready our Guardians for aggression in the space domain. At U.S. Space Command, we are always vigilant!! Our mission is "U.S. Space Command is working with Allies and Partners, to plans, execute, and integrate military spacepower into multi-domain global operations in order to deter aggression, defend national interests, and when necessary, defeat threats." I encourage all #Americans to pause over the long independence day weekend and take 15 minutes to read this article and understand a little bit more about the #SPAFORGEN initiative and why those of us working in this mission area are so focused on deterrence and responsible behavior in the domain. I encourage healthy dialogue and am always open to your thoughts on the subject of space. https://lnkd.in/g6_WHWfw #defense #DoD #allies #partners #adaptiveacquisition #partnershipmatters Kim Crider Michael Quinn Elise McGill Joel Mjolsness 🚀Chris Troyer Chris G.
