Framing the Future of the US Military Profession https://t.co/bJP2HvS49n I'm happy to see the monograph Tom Galvin and I wrote published today. We see this as the framework for a larger project. "The Future of the US Military Profession." Comments and suggestions welcome!

@Jeff_Davis1808 @Ty_Seidule @WSJ @JimWebbUSA @SecDef What's your real name...person supporting the white supremacist, pro-slavery Jefferson Davis? He was a traitor who in many other other countries would have been executed swiftly. Why should he have a voice now? His cause was pathetic and should have remained lost.

[Richard Lacquement @LacquementRA]

@WVPitt @Ty_Seidule @WSJ @JimWebbUSA @SecDef I have no idea what you mean. I'm not a flag officer and I have never supported honoring confederate traitors in the naming of US military posts or other venues. Glad to see traitor names removed from US national sites. What's your beef?

[Richard Lacquement @LacquementRA]

@Ty_Seidule @WSJ @JimWebbUSA @SecDef Confederates were traitors who do not deserve to be extolled in national sites. Remove the confederate monument that should never have been permitted in the first place.

@PatDonahoeArmy Geez, wonder why we don't win wars, eh?....

Thank you to the faculty, staff, and amazing students of the @ArmyWarCollege @SSInow for inviting me to address your annual conference and for the engaging and thoughtful dialogue on America’s challenges.

A tremendous loss. I have been fortunate to witness and benefit from his deeply important scholarship and giving personality. Heartrending on many levels. My sincere condolences to his family and all those he touched.

Happy to be repping the @ArmyWarCollege at #SMH2023 this weekend! Stop by the exhibit hall and say hello!

On Monday, Xi Jinping introduced a 24-character phrase that is likely to develop into the new 🇨🇳 foreign policy mantra.

What is it?
Why is it relevant?

Every semester I administer a mid-semester questionnaire (anonymous) to see how students are doing. This is much more helpful to me than end-of-year evals bc I still have the 2nd half of the semester to make modifications. Below are the 10 questions I ask on Google Forms: (1/5)

I’d be happy to speak to anyone about these positions too…

Great thread. Very helpful.

Be humble. Be teachable. The universe is bigger than your view of the universe. There's always room for a new idea. Humility is necessary for growth. 🧠

A useful way to visualize...

Pacific Islands are bigger than they seem, as shown on this useful map of the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ) in the Pacific Ocean.

[Richard Lacquement @LacquementRA]

Thanks, Nate @NKFinney! I enjoyed being part of the team and contribute to the "Training and Education" chapter. I was personally surprised that something like this wasn't already out there. Kudos to Katherine Carroll and Bill Hickman for making this happen!
