#GlobalThunder 27 is Underway
Each year, thousands of #USSTRATCOM warfighters team with the Joint Force, interagency and international #AlliesAndPartners for this Tier 1 training event, an intense force-wide exercise designed to challenge individuals and test the command and our components.
#GT27 is a long-planned, large-scale exercise that coincides with 24/7/365 real-world deterrence operations, so expect increased activity involving #USSTRATCOM equipment and warfighters.

Giving rising military leaders top-level insight on #USSTRATCOM’s global #StrategicDeterrence mission -- the bedrock of national defense -- drives strategic integration across the Joint Force.

To effectively sustain our global #CombatReadyForce, we continually test & assess our warfighters & capabilities.
Joint Force wargames like Home Game & engagements with interagency partners help #USSTRATCOM gather decision-quality data to direct resources for maximum effect.
CNA welcomed more than 100 attendees from across the USG interagency and more than 50 organizations to our headquarters to play HOME GAME. This wargame engaged participants on the critically important topic of sustaining vital US missions in the event of our homeland facing active disruptions. Our team leveraged its deep expertise in wargaming and our relationships across the interagency to support the Department of War and our whole-of-government partners in this critical endeavor.

For 251 years, America’s Navy has projected American power and defended our nation’s freedom.
Our sailors stand ready to FIGHT AND WIN.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY @USNAVY
Adm. Correll recently attended NSRI's National Security Research showcase in Lincoln.
Led by @U_Nebraska President Dr. Jeffrey Gold & Executive Director Rick Evans, NSRI supports select @DeptofWar programs, providing essential R&D and engineering support for #StrategicDeterrence
United States national security depends on maintaining technological advantage and harnessing the people and expertise required to meet evolving mission needs.
That imperative framed a dialogue among @SenatorFischer of Nebraska, U.S. Navy Adm. Rich Correll, commander of @US_STRATCOM, and @UofNE_President during the National Strategic Research Institute Research Showcase on September 8 at @unlincoln.

On this day in 1947, @usairforce officially became an independent branch of the U.S. Military. We owe our enduring air superiority to the brave men and women throughout history who have dedicated their lives in service of this mission.

Great to see the MH-139 reach Initial Operational Capability! I had the chance to fly it and was very impressed. It’s an amazing asset to Air Force Global Strike Command and the Air Force.

Earlier today, @SECWAR visited the warriors of @US_STRATCOM.
Their mission is clear: maintain an unmatched strategic advantage and ensure our adversaries never doubt America’s resolve.
This is real deterrence.
United States Strategic Command retweeted
.@SECWAR "To this audience of great Americans, I simply just want to say thank you.
I want to encourage you. Ask you to keep going as fast and as hard as you can, and please know that WE HAVE YOUR BACK.
President Trump tells me that on a regular basis."
United States Strategic Command retweeted
.@SECWAR "We are flying over to Wisconsin to talk to a defense manufacturer to restart our Arsenal of Freedom tour.
Which is a tour across the country over the course of this year to businesses, large and small, in our defense industrial base that will build the things that you will have in your hands to ensure deterrence."
United States Strategic Command retweeted
.@SECWAR "My main effort right now is ensuring that we get the resources to you—to ensure that these modernizations happen, not eventually, but that every deadline is moved to the left.
With this president, trust me, I hear it across the Resolute Desk every day—PETE FASTER...
Don't be comfortable with the status quo of some deadline that's been set for you BECAUSE THE BUREAUCRACY SET THAT DEADLINE—move at the speed of business."
United States Strategic Command retweeted
.@SECWAR "It’s pretty simple when it comes to what President Trump ask me to do:
It’s put America first—American citizens, our terrain, our people FIRST.
It’s peace through strength. This place is the bedrock of peace through strength, and then it’s applying common sense throughout the entirety of our formations."
