On this episode we're diving into the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Inevitably that conversation involves a little bit of drone technology talk, but we focus mostly on the human demands of this kind of warfare. When every single piece of equipment, food, etc. has to travel the last several miles on foot, what does that require of the individual soldier? When there is near constant visual and thermal surveillance, how do operations have to adapt? We break down all that and more, with some time saved at the end to talk about the ACFT implementation, since our guest played a key role in that as well. Major General Kline graduated from Shippensburg University, Pennsylvania in 1992 and was commissioned as a Field Artillery officer where he served three years as a Fire Support Officer and later a MLRS platoon leader before transferring to the Aviation branch until his promotion to Major General.Major General Kline commanded tactical aviation units at the company, battalion, and brigade levels. His aviation command assignments include A Company, 5th Battalion, 158th Aviation Regiment in Germany; 5th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment (Task Force Eagle Assault) in Fort Campbell, Kentucky and the 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade located at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia. In combat, Major General Kline served as the Executive Officer for 5th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment in Tikrit, Iraq from 2005-2006; Deputy Brigade Commander for 101st Combat Aviation Brigade in Bagram, Afghanistan in 2008; Battalion Commander of 5th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment at FOB Wolverine near Qalat, Afghanistan from 2010-2011; and Commander of Task Force Forge in Helmand, Afghanistan from 2015-2016. Uniquely, he also represented the United States in direct communication with the Taliban Political Commission (TPC) in Doha, Qatar in 2021. Specific to this podcast, he was Alex's commander at CIMT as his final command, overseeing the implementation of the ACFT and H2F. After leaving command but before retiring, he was the Army lead for the Ukraine/Russia Lessons study focused on capturing the lessons from that conflict, which is what we'll be focusing most of today's conversation on.

Annual Security Symposium. Visit: https://ceri.as/2026 Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming both the opportunities and risks within cybersecurity, creating a new landscape that today's students and researchers will soon inherit and shape. This keynote explores how AI is evolving from a supporting tool to a decision-making system, fundamentally changing how cyber threats are created, detected, and managed. It will examine emerging risks such as deepfakes, model manipulation, and systemic dependencies on shared technologies, while also addressing the growing role of regulation and the challenges of governing systems that are powerful yet often opaque. Most importantly, the session will highlight where the greatest opportunities lie—at the intersection of AI, cybersecurity, and policy—and how the next generation of professionals can play a defining role in building secure, resilient, and trustworthy systems for the future.  About the speaker: Brian J.

What does it take to lead a team where the margin for error is measured in centimeters and the consequences of a mistake are devastating? In this high-flying episode from the archive, Andy Lopata sits down with Dan Lowes, a former RAF fighter pilot and Executive Officer of the world-renowned Red Arrows. Dan pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build and maintain an elite, high-performance team that must perform flawlessly under extreme pressure. Forget the myth of the "best" individual performers. Dan reveals that the Red Arrows aren't necessarily the nine best pilots in the RAF—they are the nine best teammates. They explore the rigorous selection process, the mindset required to stay motivated when you're a "super-sub" waiting for your moment, and why a world-class team delivers the exact same level of excellence for a village fete as they do for a Royal flypast. This is a masterclass in trust, character, and the pursuit of excellence for any leader looking to elevate their team. What you will learn from this episode The Baseline Performance Trap: Why technical skill is only the "entry fee" and why character is the real differentiator in elite teams. The "Super-Sub" Mindset: How to maintain peak motivation and stay at the top of your game when your primary mission isn't called upon. Consistency of Excellence: Why the Red Arrows fly with the same precision over a local cricket match as they do over Buckingham Palace—and why your business should too. Rebuilding a Winning Team Every Year: The secret to replacing 33% of your team annually while remaining the best in the world. Actionable Insights Hire for Character Once the Baseline is Met: In your recruitment, establish a non-negotiable baseline for technical ability. Once a candidate crosses that line, stop looking at their skills and start looking at their character. Ask yourself: "Are they the best teammate for the existing group?" Conduct "Village Fete" Audits: Look at your smallest clients or least visible projects. Are you giving them the same "smoke plan and formation" as your biggest VIP accounts? True excellence is a habit of consistency, not a reaction to the size of the audience. Encourage "Situational Awareness" Training: Just as pilots think 100 miles ahead of the jet, encourage your team to look "up the road." Help them recognise patterns and develop the calmness that comes from experience, moving from reactive fire-fighting to proactive situational management.

Medicolegal Death Investigator Paul Parker often brought chaos to once calm, orderly lives. What can happen when death is a constant companion and you don't develop the skillsets and tools to stay ahead of the pain. Paul and I discuss his journey in a world that at best, is misunderstood by most. Paul does a remarkable job of bringing the reader along for a ride that will leave you grateful and reconnect you with the humanity and the love thats required to "choose life in the face of death". You won't want to put it down, but you should, for a moment, to allow yourself to reflect upon the journey and how best to take what's written in the pages of his book to proactively apply it to your life. Sit back, reflect and choose to live a better life. Always, Johnhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/paulrparker/?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3ByIAmGEVDSHG7jONJlmkhgA%3D%3Dwww.paulparker.comMore about Paul :I am the host of "Inside Death Investigation with Paul Parker" on YouTube. My memoir, “In the Shadows of Death: Writing Life's Final Chapter,” was published in April 2025 (Houndstooth Publishing). It is also the recipient of a "Get It" recommendation from the prestigious Kirkus Reviews, with its review featured in the January 1, 2026, issue of Kirkus Reviews Magazine.For almost 30 years, I worked inside the system responsible for investigating deaths that occur outside of routine medical care, such as sudden deaths, unexpected deaths, in-custody deaths, and deaths that raise legal, medical, or public concern. What most families, journalists, lawyers, and even policymakers don't realize is that a death investigation is not a single event. It is a process governed by statute, medical judgment, institutional constraints, and human decision-making. And when that process is misunderstood, mistrust fills the gap. My YouTube channel exists not to sensationalize death, capitalize upon it for profit, or create outrage. I aim to educate, inform, explain, and propose improvement measures.I have participated in several thousand on-scene medicolegal death investigations, conducted at least 13,000 solo telephonic/electronically reported medicolegal death investigations, and reviewed and approved reports and circumstances for more than 20,000 medicolegal additional death investigations.  I have also conducted several hundred in-person death notifications. As the former Executive Officer of the San Diego County Citizens' Law Enforcement Review Board (CLERB), I conducted on-scene in-custody death investigations and made numerous recommendations to reduce in-custody deaths, increase transparency of law enforcement operations, and increase communications with family members of persons impacted by in-custody deaths and deaths associated with law enforcement activitiesI was a member of the California Coroner Curriculum Development Committee, an instructor at the California Coroner Academy, an American Academy of Forensic Sciences Standards Board Medicolegal Death Investigation Consensus Body Member, ...Thank you for taking the time to give this podcast a listen.

Today, we're excited to welcome Dr. Antony Stately to Native Lights. Antony Stately is a transformative leader dedicated to health equity in Indigenous communities. He's enrolled with the Oneida Nation, and he's a descendant of both the Red Lake and White Earth nations here in Minnesota, and he has two sons. He's currently the Executive Officer and President for the Native American Community Clinic in South Minneapolis, providing primary care, dental care and behavioral health services to the Native American community in the Twin Cities.  Antony gives updates on the long-awaited new Native American Community Clinic building and shares his hope that it can be a space where Indigenous people recognize, from the moment they enter, that it's a place for them and where they belong.  He also reflects on his youth and the early addictions that eventually led to a hospital room and a transformative moment that changed the trajectory of his life.-----Hosts / Producers: Leah Lemm, Cole Premo Editor: Britt Aamodt Editorial support: Emily Krumberger Mixing & mastering: Chris Harwood -----For the latest episode drops and updates, follow us on social media. instagram.com/ampersradioinstagram.com/mnnativenewsfacebook.com/MNNativeNewsNever miss a beat.

Joining Robert Pilot, ANTONY STATELY, Executive Officer and President for the Native American Community Clinic and Sarah Andersen, White Earth Nation, is the Development Director at the Native American Community Clinic The post Native Roots Radio – February 23, 2026 first appeared on AM 950.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-thirtieth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by MAJ Amy Beatty, the Task Force Executive Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer from Task Force Sustainment (Division Sustainment Support Battalion / Light Support Battalion) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guest is MAJ Alice Bechtol, the Executive Officer for the 325th Light Support Battalion of 3rd Mobile Brigade, 25th Infantry Division.   The 325th Light Support Battalion, known by its Hollywood call sign “Mustang” and guided by the motto “Support to the Front,” serves as the sustainment backbone of 3rd Brigade Combat Team. Stationed in Hawaii and aligned to fight in the Indo-Pacific, the battalion traces its lineage to the Army's modular transformation era, evolving from a Brigade Support Battalion into a Light Support Battalion under the Army's restructuring efforts. As part of the “Bronco” Brigade within the 25th Infantry Division, the 325th LSB has adapted its structure and sustainment concepts to meet the demands of archipelagic and jungle operations, emphasizing smaller distribution packages, agile base cluster designs, and expeditionary logistics capable of supporting dispersed maneuver forces across restrictive terrain.      This episode examines lessons learned from a Light Support Battalion (LSB) executing a DATE-Pacific archipelago rotation at JPMRC, with a strong focus on sustainment command-and-control, base cluster design, and staff proficiency under high turnover. A central theme is the deliberate investment in MDMP repetitions prior to deployment—conducting multiple internal reps despite 80% personnel turnover—to build shared understanding and accelerate staff performance in the box. Leaders discuss the importance of not waiting for a “perfect” higher headquarters order, instead executing concurrent MDMP, publishing early, and refining through FRAGOs to maintain tempo. The battalion's approach to battle tracking—assigning mission numbers to both forecasted and unforecasted sustainment requirements—allowed the staff to regain control of chaotic demand signals and manage flash taskings without losing visibility. Additionally, the LSB experimented with splitting its staff between tactical and main command posts to preserve survivability while maintaining continuity in day/night operations, accepting friction in order to train to the harder standard.    The discussion also highlights the sustainment realities of operating in a Pacific archipelago environment, where terrain, vegetation, and dispersed maneuver elements require smaller, more agile distribution packages. Leaders describe efforts to break bulk commodities down earlier in the sustainment chain, leverage smaller platforms, experiment with caches, and refine fuel and water distribution concepts to better support infantry formations operating at slower movement rates in restrictive terrain. Integration with the Division Sustainment Brigade under the new R-struct proved beneficial, particularly through synchronized battle rhythms and shared intelligence and communications awareness, while maintaining strong habitual relationships with maneuver battalions and their Combat Logistics Companies (CLCs). The overarching takeaway is that success in this environment required disciplined MDMP, flexible sustainment packaging, protected staff development, and a willingness to adapt systems and processes in real time to preserve tempo and survivability in LSCO.   Part of S05 “Beans, Bullets, Band-Aids, Batteries, Water, & Fuel” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

In Episode 285, I sit down with father–son jiu-jitsu black belts Jeff and Aaron Tiegs. It's wild how small the world is—Aaron and I first connected through jiu-jitsu, and I've had him up to train my athletes a couple of times because he's an exceptional grappler and instructor. Last week, when he came up to teach, he brought his father Jeff with him. Jeff and I quickly realized we were Rangers together back in 2000 at Alpha Company, 2/75. I was a private and he was the company Executive Officer. Obviously, with that rank gap, we didn't forge a friendship back then, but he was an exceptional Ranger who was respected by everyone. Connecting again all these years later was a real pleasure. The three of us sat down and talked about life, the military, jiu-jitsu, and more.
