This is the last day and my last blog at the Joint Warfighting Conference in Virginia Beach, Va. I have been listening to Craig Wilson, USJFCOM’s Strategy and Policy Directorate, chief of staff, address the Joint Operating Environment (JOE) and the Capstone Concept for Joint Operations (CCJO) and USJFCOM strategic themes. His closing remarks are focused on how USJFCOM is executing the mission of building the joint force to best meet the demands of the future security environment.
Wilson said USJFCOM’s execution to meet this mission set begins with the authoring or informing on doctrines like the JOE and CCJO that articulate both the demand signal and solutions to operate in the future.
He goes on to highlight other areas of what USJFCOM’s doing.
· Rigorous experimentation to support the development of future warfighting capabilities.
· Creating vision statements such as the IW and C2 vision statements that aid not only USJFCOM but all of DoD [Department of Defense].
· Working rapidly to inject operational lessons learned from the battlefield back into the fights we’re in.
· Conducting mission rehearsal exercises for forces moving forward and many other exercises in support of our fellow COCOMs.
According to Wilson, this is a snapshot of USJFCOM’s effort to build the joint force.
What a great conference. I enjoyed talking to you!
