“For the 1st time in history, the nation is facing 2 strategic, nuclear-capable peers at the same time, who must be deterred differently…I don’t have the luxury of deterring 1 adversary at a time…We have to deter all, all of the time.” ~ADM Richard @US_Stratcom#SMDSymposium
An AFGSC unarmed #MinutemanIII#ICBM launched during an operational test this morning at @SLDelta30 (Vandenberg). ICBM test launches demonstrate that the #MMIII fleet is relevant, essential & key to leveraging dominance in an era of Strategic Competition.

Happy birthday @DeptofDefense!
Today marks 72 years since the National Security Act Amendments of 1949 were signed, renaming the military's department the Department of Defense and unifying it under the @SecDef. We're proud serving with our fellow services defending our nation!
