Honored to have a fireside chat with @MorganLBrennan at the @AIAspeaks Board of Governors meeting in DC. We discussed the critical role of the defense industrial base in driving #defense modernization & maintaining our competitive edge in the complex global security environment.
Congratulations to Mark Milley on his retirement after a long and significant career in uniform. Can’t wait to watch the many ways he’ll continue to contribute to the security of the United States. And congrats, too, to the new CJCS, Gen. Brown!
