This may be my favorite lines of the entire text:

2/2 Image
A lot of recognition has gone to TF 61/2, but not as much to TF 76/3.

Glad USINDOPACOM is getting due recognition, @datrnq Image
3d MLR and the PMC Coastal Defense Regiment getting some love in the #FD2030 update. Image
Glad to see that L-Class ships made it into the discussion this year.

Littoral maneuver is different from mobility, and we need this ships for our Marines and Sailors to survive in future conflict. Image
I hope a counter-assault doctrine is incorporated, too! warontherocks.com/2023/01/deterr… Image
The MAOC is the USMC’s unique contribution to future warfare.

Although it is an ACE capability, as @br4s1d4s and @AMDuncan0 rightly point out, there is potential for its future application as a joint C2 capability. Image
Our beloved infantry battalions are not forgotten in this #ForceDesign2030 update, @MAGTravF Image
Logistics is the pacing function in the Pacific, and I have my choices on where the USMC should invest in pre-positioning networks in USINDOPACOM. Image
Strong finish with a nod to our A & P:

“Modernizing the Corps in this way improves our ability to deter potential adversaries by providing credible support to naval campaigns and expanding integration with the naval and joint force, as well as our allies and partners.” Image

Due to a twist of fate, cancelled holiday plans, and uncanny timing, I met some amazing people and was finally able to see the small bit of France that family and friends from our small town in Hawai’i liberated during WWII.

A short thread:

1/ Image
Growing up, it was always a source of pride that relatives and friends from our small town in Hawai’i did their part for our country and, at great cost, liberated communities across Europe.

A relative of mine, Pvt Edward Sato, fought around Bruyères as part of Co C, 100th Inf Bn, 442nd Regimental Combat Team - a unit comprised primarily of Japanese Americans.

Tragically, he passed away two years after the end of the war in Europe, and I never knew his stories.
