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.
