Gen. Roger Brady, head of US Air Forces in Europe, believes Europe could use irregular forces “very effectively.” Brady explained to the Defense Writers Group in Washington March 26 that allies currently without modern air forces, particularly smaller states, could usher in irregular warfare capabilities “much quicker than [adding] fourth or fifth generation aircraft.” However, when asked if he’d be willing to sacrifice USAFE conventional capability to add irregular forces, Brady drew the line, saying, “I think I’ve given [blood] at the office.” (See “Stop Cutting USAFE“)
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth visited the site of U.S. Space Command’s future home Dec. 12 and endorsed the move to establish the headquarters in Alabama after years of political back and forth.
