Posted by jlecappelain in industry, joint capability development, joint experimentation on May 28th, 2010
Last week, USJFCOM’s J9 hosted the command’s annual Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) review. During these reviews, all the different JCTD project teams present their work to OSD representatives.
Earl Wyatt, the OSD Rapid Fielding director, praised USJFCOM’s work and ability to innovate looking forward.
“A large part of what we do is trying to respond to a known need. When it comes to innovation, sometimes it’s doing what you do more efficiently and sometimes it’s introducing something entirely different,” he said.
To read more about the JCTD review, we have posted a story about it on the USJFCOM main web site.

During his speech at the Joint Warfighting Conference earlier this week, Air Force Gen. Craig R. McKinley, chief of the National Guard Bureau, noted that Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates has strongly asserted that the defense budget is going to have to come down, maybe considerably, over the next several years.
We do have an advantage, that in the days when a [National Guard] soldier or airman is not mobilized or not volunteering for duty, those are days when you don’t pay that soldier. You have the advantage of having that soldier or airman who can integrate as needed, and it’s not costing the nation for that service. We get paid for the service that we perform.
