Everett Views Space Cadre as Most Important: Rep. Terry Everett (R-Ala.), chairman of the House Armed Services Strategic Forces Subcommittee, called for an update on the status of the Air Force’s effort to develop a “space cadre,” saying “nothing can be more important for the success of our space programs than the development of a competent and capable force of space professionals.” He noted that “numerous studies” had “identified a deficit” in this area. Everett deems it “critical” to “aggressively address this shortfall.”
The U.S. military struck three Iranian oil tankers on Sept. 5, as the Trump administration and Iran battle for control over the Strait of Hormuz.
