army, navy, air force people totally out of sight who could execute rapidly.ccess to the president of the united states, secretary of defense, secretary of state. they were integrated with the cia. mccrystal and flynn created a counter terrorist organization that were the most dangerous people on the face of the earth. >> in june 2006, jsoc gets intel on the most wanted jihadist in iraq. >> this was the head of al qaeda in iraq. he was carrying out the kind of attacks that were so horrific that even al qaeda was criticizing him, killing other muslims, killing women and children. he was really public enemy number one for the u.s. at the time. they caught up to him. >> he is dead. the terrorist responsible for horrific acts of violence in iraq from beheadings to car bombings was killed by u.s. military forces in an air attack on a safe house near baghdad. >> that was a great achievement of mike flynn in iraq. >> the addition of thousands more troops during the bush administration's surge helped bring more areas of iraq under control. within a year, al qaeda in i

i have flags in the oval office with stripes from the army,, navy, air force, marines and coast guard and they all have ribbons. i don't know if the cameras can show you, but in some cases hundreds of ribbons from victories. we will only put up the victories but we only have victories but we only talk about the victories. thank you all very much. that's fantastic. now we will go to the coast guard. we just ordered a coast guard cutter, an icebreaker the likes of which nobody has seen before. the bad part is the price. the good part is it is the most powerful in the world, and it can go just about anywhere. the ice is in big trouble when that thing gets finished. it will go right through it. it is very expensive, but that is ok. we have to do the best that you will be very proud of it. it is a new design, highest technology. but with all of the technology, it still needs very thick steel when you get right down to it. it could be good technology but you need thick steel. it is like the border wall. we still need a wall. they can have all the drones they want flying up in the air and sp

either the air force or the navy. the army air corps the navy guy below tailgunner guy in the turret 30 caliber popgun back there. the beautiful thing about the airplane their landing talks more than big cds. so that airplane down not worry much about spinning inlet like you would from a corsair. something like that nature. remember landing in the water my plane having been disabled engine trouble. take me on board i had to land in the water. two men on the plane for the 500 pound depth charges. a little bit of see, not much. but i never got wet. climbed out on the wing from inclined after the tour. they didn't get wet. plane stay there floating for a while. gradually sank to the depths of the pacific. that stability, dependability. >> if you have no objections. >> hopefully you did it better than i did. divan on the wing. supposed to put the right-hand turn emphasis on the door in the back. put it in that thread so i could get up. i pulled the ripcord too early. my head struck the tail of the plane so much so i though

so army, navy, air force, marines.st guard present. 21-gun salute was fired by the old guard, the 3rd infantry regiment here in washington. they do all the ceremonial duties as well as national security protection for the capital city and i'm sure they're all honored to be part of this day. >> a very powerful moment, chris, as we were watching that. i was thinking, this is a good thing for americans to see right now. i think it's george bush's last public service. it shows us an honorable american being honored by his country in a way that is rare. at a moment when we are struggling politically. when we're very divided politically. and when people question the role of government. to see someone who served throughout his life, military, civilian, did it honorably. being honored by his country and by the military and the public he served. it's just a very powerful image that's a healthy thing for all of us to see. >> joe, i think i agree completely. the idea that conservative republicans, trumpian republicans can respect

then you have the army, navy, air force and marines competing for the other 15. the 99%, versus the 1% that the -- talks about. how do we close -- how do we expand the pool of potential recruits to the armed services of the united states? and what are we doing about it to show that it is not just 11a and 11b, but we've got stem and we have got all kinds of other fields that are open across the services? thank you. >> that question i think quite a bit about. it isser mo a personal experience. the time i have spent in the department of defense has been awesome. most of america doesn't understand what the department of defense does, or the careers or opportunities that the services provide. you know, when you think about -- i don't know what the number is, but the average is the student coming out of college is carrying $30,000 worth of debt. the training, the experience. setting aside some of these physical performance issues, those are all solvable. i think we need to take some different tactics and i think secretary he is per and general millie are rethinking som

much like when the air force was created in 1947, they took things from the army and created an air force. what they are talking about now taking space stuff from the army, navy, air force, and whoever else, and creating an organization within the pentagon. from my perspective, i think nasa will still be where we are to we will relate with people on the pentagon on things we have to coordinate on. which we do from time to time. that really does not have a lot of bearing on nasa. topic. confusing you have to understand how the u.s. military is structured. which most people do not know and note -- and don't really need to know. it is not likely going to have a big impact on nasa. joseph: that because of a secret but because it is not useful information for everyone? bill: what they are creating is a new version of the air force but for space. and that is not nasa. they will do military space probes. nasa will continue with its civil space mission. joseph: are there other, nor every day use products that were the result of nasa's work, for example with [indiscernible] [laughter] bill: we have a litany at nasa that-- of products everyone thinks were created by th

one of the people who went to the moon were military pilots, were ex-military pilots from the navy, the air force, or the marines, and so we say, "all right, guys, if you're going to the moon anyway, can you do these experiments? gather some rocks? look for these rocks. put those in the satchel and plant this experiment. make these measurements." so science got done, and we now know the origin of the moon from these experiments. we didn't know that before the apollo era. it was a collision with earth and a mars-sized protoplanet. it's a great story. but what i'm saying is, this piggybacked a geopolitically motivated act to go to the moon. >> and there were financial resources that were focused directly on it that led -- because of the war and because of the human conflict. >> correct. >> that accelerated human advancement. >> it wouldn't have happened at all. forget acceleration. we would've never gone to the moon. we're not this military driver. >> so then is there ever a possibility the time with non-military forces driving true and really monumental astrophysic achievement? >> not really. take

air power, u.s. navy and air force attack aircraft. you can't make an argument for is insulting our allies, leaving the kurds in a lurch, endangering the withdrawal out of syria and then telling the turkish dictator erdogan that we're going to turn the battlefield over to you. it's just an astonishing approach to u.s. national security. >> now we have the president saying that everybody wants the job of secretary of defense. obviously as we know jim mattis is out of that job having resigned because of the decision the president made to pull troops out of syria. the president says look, everybody and their uncle, everybody and their aunt, because he doesn't want to anger any women out there, want this job. >> look, i hope -- >> sorry, ned first and then general, you can weigh in. >> i don't doubt the president, that there are a lot of people who want this job. i'm concerned that the people who want this job are not the people we would want in that job. he and president trump don't share a world view. i think there's been a lot of report

we have the acquisition officers of the army-navy air force in the special operations command, also thesecretary of the air force, now former secretary of the air force, deborah james, and the current secretary of the army, mark esper has been speakers in this series. it should suffice to say that the series is a further expression of what brent go craft had in mind for us. which is to be an institution which creatively cultivates a transatlantic constituency for strategic thinking about and practical solutions for the problems of international security throughout the globe. today's discussion, is about implementing defense industrial policy plays directly to that mission. and, i want to think again, the entire panel for adding their names to the illustrious alumni, thank you. now, let's welcome eric chewning, the deputy or assistant secretary of defense for in which capacity he served as the director responding to executive order 13806. as i have said or implied, that is the impetus for today's discussion and eric will discuss parts of it in his prepared remarks. but, more generally he

gavin williamson on the sunday telegraph is making clear that the army, navy and air force are therethe small text here is the fact that if the ministry of defence steps in it expects the other whitehall department that has requested help to pay them back, and it costs £20,000 a day to rent a naval vessel to do the same job as a cutter, so i am not quite convinced that that is am not quite convinced that that is a solution we are going to be seen in the coming weeks. so ministers looking tough but it is not entirely clear they are going to be actually doing much. they have two, i guess, balance this issue of if you deploy more resources, does that encourage more resources, does that encourage more people to come, thinking they will just be picked more people to come, thinking they willjust be picked up? on the other hand you have desperate people here ina very hand you have desperate people here in a very busy shipping lane. yes, absolutely, and i think people are concerned that we are on the cusp of seeing a human tragedy, potential for drowning in the coming days, if the situation

we have the army, navy and air force are all working on it. we haven't brought that together. if you remember s.d.i., there was a three-star general that got put in charge of s.d.i. at large. i think in the hypersonics discussion, we have to, again, that's a strategic technology that we cannot allow ourselves to fall behind in anymore. because i think we already are. so i think that the effort that we need to put forward, we need to bring the national labs we need to bring industry and their expertise, which are paramount to success in that, and then we need to make sure that we're all working together and we're not doing duplicative work. there's not enough time or money in the budget to do multiple events trying to get to one end game. i believe that he sees that and he's working hard and i think, again, i'd ask dr. kennedy, but i think he's reached out to industry. i think industry knows the department's interest in it. and the way to move forward. that's one of the key strategic technologies that we have got to move out of. morgan: dr. kennedy, when i think about s.d.i. an

militaries backed up by some incredible air power from the navy and air force. so we have pushed back isis remarkably. there's still 20,000 or 30,000 left. but i think what you can't form an argument for is having sort of a lone ranger foreign and national security policy where you don't bring your own government aboard, you don't bring your allies aboard, you don't think about the next step, you don't have a strategy. it looks like we don't know what we're doing. >> jack jacobs, i want to show you and remind our audience about a constant complaint on the campaign trail having to do with military policy by then candidate donald trump. >> they announced four months ago, three months ago, we're going into mosul. we're going to get the leaders of isis because they're living in mosul. guess what? 12 minutes later the leaders -- they left. whatever happened? remember the great generals it was called? the element of surprise. >> what you do is you do a sneak attack or a surprise attack. right? right? we're too predictable. >> we must as a nation be more unpredictable.

hat was it like the biggestable, single engine plane in either the air force or the navy, the army air corps or the navy -- and it was very stable. they had the tour it, and the tailgunner. the turn had -- i forget -- tour and theret, tailgunner. and the beautiful thing about the airplane was that it was landing on a tossing deck, the cdl carrier. i think she tossed more than the big seabees. slow that airplane down and not worry as much as about spitting in. dependable, it i remembera hit, landing it in the water. my plan having been -- my plane having been disabled by engine trouble. i had to land in the water. death --e 500 pound depth charges, and two men. the plane floated for a while and gradually sank. but dependability. seats.e were no ejection i would have to dive out onto the wing, and get on top of it. i was supposed to put the plane on the right-hand turn so that the others could get out. and then i would put it in a turn so i could get out. but i pulled the record too early and my head struck the tale of the plane. so much so that i thought that i had been wounded. -- luck

the united states, no army, navy or air force.hink it is a mistake to under estimate a man. >> all i know is the united states is the industrial phenomenon of the world. two in war, we need manpower. this number is limited. the number of men necessary for fight,ion with which to the ratio of workers to soldiers is fixed. >> have you ever considered the possibility of foreign labor? american women? >> [laughter] tom. statisticsy some about the women of america. last year, they spent more than the united states navy. more for stockings than the united states air force spent. >> was her lovers, loafers. pleasure lovers, loafers. soldiers,ined like and are now producing the goods for our soldiers. this, i accepted. the moment was right. the world war has begun. states,e, in the united they began to operate factories that appeared overnight. how was it possible for america and be an perfection army? frommazing reports came in the united states. >> the answer was that 20% of industrial manpower was woman power. legions of american women

so our army, navy, air force. there are far fewer of them than in the decades past. so numbers matter, i agree, and a lot of resources will have to go towards increasing those numbers. thank you, mr. chairman. >> senator kyl. >> mr. chairman, as a matter of personal privilege, let me comment for just a moment as a former member of this commission to compliment you and senator reed for the incredible support that you gave to the commission and to senator mccain for helping to create it, for appointing me to the commission, and to reiterate what i believe ambassador edelman said in the beginning, which was that the quality of the members of this commission was outstanding, and i accept myself from that. i learned a great deal from my fellow commissioners. i see that ambassador patterson is here. i don't know if there are any other members of the commission that are here. i don't see any out there, but we had a breadth of experience and expertise that i found just to be extraordinary. that's the first point that i wanted to make. the second is that while it's been said

taking advantage of it, and we go up and down, and forcing 2-1, 20% in afghanistan, it is a clear strategy and afghanistan. relying on a navy and airorce, there's a lot of support for that. >> do you think the president is persuadable on syria and afghanistan because a number of his good friends and allies like lindsey graham who got back from afghanistan days ago say they are not going to let this go, there needs to be a tougher conversation trying to persuade him which they are actively trying to do? >> the president swiveled in a different direction in august 2017 when he made that speech about afghanistan and that was counter to what he said during the campaign but i would say the fight against the terrorists in south asia and the middle east it is human based and it is hard to do it from the air. we need people with skills and to some extent the secret of our success is the secret of our success, the al qaeda guys we are killing who threaten our homeland and that is a good thing. i want -- the public is unaware, perhaps they need to be more aware of the steps we have taken. shannon: we found a poll from over the summer about s

conflicts a year more or less and that's money that could be used elsewhere to rebuilding our navy and air force in deterring china appeared to >> there is some concern they'll be slaughtered without the u.s. keeping an eye on things. >> we still have a relationship. of course you're been a lifeline to kurds in northern iraq and the linkages between those kurds and the kurds in syria. withdrawing our troops doesn't mean a complete evacuation are and of our contact and then support for some of these groups the president would be very willing to sell arms or provide arms, but we should also be mindful that continuing the serious civil war at the deep humanitarian costs. this has killed several hundred thousand people, assad bring an end to the conflict in giving an avenue that doesn't necessarily run through tehran or moscow frankly reaching out to him for a political solution would be better than just keeping forces in syria. >> speaking about, what is the reaction to the withdrawal? >> i don't think that's true because now assad and putin and the iranians have to build about any rennet jihadist

we have the army, navy and air force, and we're working on it and we haven't brought that together and if you remember sdi and we have a three-star general, and i think in the hypersonics discussion, that's a strategic technology that we cannot allow ourselves to fall behind in anymore because i think we already are. so i think that the effort that we need to put forward, we need to bring the national labs and we need to bring industry and their expertise which are paramount to success and that and we need to make sure that we're all working together and we're not doing duplicitous work and we're trying to get to one endgame of a hypersonic capability. i do believe, in talking to dr. griffin recently, i do believe that he sees that and he's working hard and i think again, i asked dr. kennedy, but he's reached out to industry. i think industry knows the department's interest in it and the way to move forward and that's one of the key strategic technologies that we've got to move out of. >> dr. kennedy, when i think about sdi i think about what the world is like at that point in time, pr

we're not running away from the middle east, but shifting to reagan posture which is navy and air forceic one. that also works f there is crisis which i think sun likely and crisis with china which unfortunately is more likely, having more forces to deter something. you're right, china has undergone decades long, very significant military build-up with stolen western technology. nobody country has naval build-up never wanted to have an adventure, including our own. taking resources he saves from the shift. importantly getting a secretary of defense who believes in that. mattis wasn't very pacific-focused. we do freedom of navigation sailing efforts against the chinese now than we did at the end of the obama administration. mattis was opposed to trump's policies on the paris climate accord, pulling out of iran, moving israeli embassy, a supportive second -- sec-def would be nice. charles: pulling out of global leadership as articulated in the mainstream media, are we creating a vacuum with respect to the global leadership position? >> that is the hardest decision a president or secretary

what i'm not trying to do is to get the arm against the navy against the air force or the marine corps, but the discussion was at some point in time we got to have further discussion to decide how much longer can they continue with this requirement which puts strain on the ratings and other mission core requirements they can do? at the same time were still need to come up with a good solution for ballistic missile defense. i brought and a couple of my guys and i wanted to say hey, i just want to let you know how i've seen this to my own particular lens. i thought at some point in time we need to do an independent study on roles and missions of joint missile defense. this is a side from the ever awaiting spill missile-defense review were still waiting. this is something that we really couldn't leave from a jiamdo perspective, , it's more like an independent study. you get this in red personnel out there or body of work that can put together some type of analysis and assessment. we are not there yet but that's where right before i left, over the summer, i started drawing at this conversa

not doing anything there's already an organization inside the air force that's capable of taking care of that and is the air force army, navyl have components that have space capabilities. so we are talking about would we change that because we view it as a more optimal arrangement to develop capabilities for tomorrow and to manage our space force? space people, and i think everyone has concluded that we can make some changes in those two areas to be better and to make sure out in front of spaces -- space is a separate domain. one of the five domains. you have seen so many options so i would just tease you with a few of them. you can establish a separate department of space with a separate service inside of that department so it completely is a separate organization. >> the president want new uniforms. >> you can create a separate service inside of the department air force that is an approach to that. so there are many ways to do that and i think what we will see is a legislative proposal. the vice president is chairing the space counsel and this issue is being discussed in the context of this count -- of the space counsel.

when it comes to pulling back grant, ground forces and relying on a navy, relying on an air force to power in the middle east and beyond, there is a lot of support for that. i think the president want to articulate that a little clearer appears to be what do you think the president is persuadable on either of these fronts, syria or afghanistan, because a number of his good friends and all has like senator lindsey graham who just got back from afghanistan days ago, say they are not going to let this go. they feel like there needs to be a tougher conversation with the president, trying to persuade him, which i think they are actively trying to do at this point. speak of the swiveled in a different direction back in 2017 when he made that speech about afghanistan and decided to commt our troops even though that was counter to what he said in the campaign. i will say the terrace in the middle east, i can say from experience, it is really human based. it is our intelligence and it is hard to do it just from the air. we need actually people there with skills, and to some extent, the secret
