What are the takeaways from the Army's deployment of watercraft to Gaza for the pier mission? Namely, is this expeditionary operations? Does it justify current watercraft demands?
My colleague, Chris Pernin, and I share our thoughts: https://t.co/N3WWOQZIw0

My brilliant co-lead @CLGarafola summarizes our new work expertly. This was the most interesting research I’ve worked on to date at @RANDCorporation . We have more ideas to explore on the topic. Stay tuned.

We have a new report out on the Chinese military’s approach to maintenance management.

A thread on our research and findings… 🧵

RAND's @joslynmfleming discusses her new research with @militarydotcom: "It's really to help commanders, the people making decisions, understand how gender factors might come into play and may impact operations." https://t.co/a8xoL2N2RF

[Joslyn Fleming @joslynmfleming]

On the six-year anniversary of the Women, Peace, and Security Act of 2017, my @RANDCorporation colleagues and I have a new report that highlights how applying gender perspectives to DoD activities reaps operational benefits. https://t.co/d8QN2IzOEw

@NoraPrinciotti @NathanCHubbard If you were to Frankenstein a best speak now album which songs would you take from the original vs Taylor’s version.

"This new, smaller Marine Corps will need to be a very well-trained, mature, almost special operations forces–style force," says @joslynmfleming. "By shrinking in some areas, they'll be able to invest in other capabilities that are already emerging." https://t.co/AzEAXY6f45

If you're a @WarOnTheRocks member you can listen to the newest episode of The Insider in which @NicholasDanfort interviews the three Marine authors of this article. It's terrific.

My colleagues and I wrote a letter to the next CMC urging him to better articulate the Corps’ value to the most important audiences. We believe USMC is at risk of achieving its objectives due to unfunded and unrealized dependencies. https://t.co/65zUVVmz1e

2022 has been yet another crash course in living through extraordinary times. I'm thinking about the gravity of the policy challenges we face and the very real impacts they have on people's lives. 🧵 https://t.co/DSIMPJ1rXQ

CA's food recovery mandate, SB 1383, could help address the climate crisis & food insecurity.

Our team looked at food recovery efforts in LA county to identify barriers to implementing the law and to find opportunities for innovation & capacity-building. https://t.co/zIfHabVxBJ

This article highlights some of the key findings from our report. "The military does not know nearly enough about how eating disorders and disordered eating are hurting its troops." This is an area in need of further study. @TaskandPurpose @halbritz https://t.co/hlhsEkC9yH

@JeannetteHaynie and my report on USMC Body Composition policy and its impact is out today. Identified how the policy may drive Marines towards unhealthy behaviors and jeopardize retaining a diverse, lethal fighting force. Commentary: https://t.co/xpVKT1RZMs

@SebastianBae @TheKrulakCenter Thanks for the shout out, friend. Excited to geek out about logistics with some great subject matter experts!

[Jonathan Wong 黃沛恩 @jonpwong]

You want to know how to transform the Marine Corps? You better think about how you’re going to equip it as you experiment. @joslynmfleming and I share our thoughts.

[Jonathon Frerichs @hoplitemarine]

"Amateurs talk about tactics, but professionals study logistics..." Give a listen to @jonpwong and @joslynmfleming discuss opportunities for equipping the future naval force.

[Jonathan Wong 黃沛恩 @jonpwong]

Huba Wass de Czege reflected that developing AirLand Battle meant getting the details right.

@joslynmfleming and I argue this remains so. The services will need to flexibly equip themselves as they experiment w/ new concepts. We joined @CIMSEC's Sea Control podcast to discuss.

[Joslyn Fleming @joslynmfleming]

My good friend and talented colleague, @jonpwong, and I talked with @hoplitemarine about Marine Corps equipping challenges. Unless these are addressed they will continue to persist as USMC plans to be more disaggregated in support of EABO. But we have a plan!

@klkuzminski Excited for you. You are going to do great things as you always have!

@jonpwong Loved his quote, “I’m assuming the 2nd Marine into Tun Tavern was like ‘you know... our standards have gone. They’re just not the same as they used to be.’”
