President Bush, currently visiting the Middle East, has named Air Force Lt. Gen. William Fraser to oversee compliance with the US-backed Israeli-Palestinian peace plan known as the “roadmap,” AFP news service reported yesterday. Fraser serves currently as assistant to the Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff in the Pentagon.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
