The Air Mobility Warfare Center is about to roll out its new 3.5 day course designed to indoctrinate colonels who are slated to deploy as expeditionary mission support group commanders. The first course is set to kick off Feb. 7 with 18 students. Col. Shelley Christian, commandant of the Expeditionary Operations School at Ft. Dix, N.J., says the new course is the next step in leadership training, by verifying and validating the competency of expeditionary combat force leadership.
Unit commanders are being told to separate service members who can’t shave their cheeks and chin for medical reasons for more than a year, according to new guidance from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
