I have been tied up connecting the dots with defense techology leaders the last couple weeks, so sorry I have not been keeping you up to date here on the blog.

I also wrote an article in response to Defense Secretary Robert Gates comments in the press a bit ago. In this, I took the opportunity to outline how Jakes address IEDs, since this was only touched on briefly during the Radio talk Show noted below. This article, “JAKE as Creative Thinking Sought by Secretary Gates”, can be read on New Media Journal at: http://www.newmediajournal.us/guest/r_strong/2008/05032008.htm

Think through the thoughts at the end of this article relative to Army and Marine recruiting challenges you are hearing in the news as people and analysts speak of our ground forces being stretched thin — Jake is a very real solution that nobody in the media or services is talking about

I had a good conversation with Frank Salvato’s on the radio talk show, ‘The Right Balance”, the other week. This is now available to listen on the internet from New Media Journal’s archive “The JAKE System…’We Can Do This’” The link is below:

‘right click’ where shown and then click on ‘open’ and it will download and play for you, or you can go directly to:
http://www.newmediajournal.us/images/sounds/strong_0503.mp3

The talk show segment is 20 minutes, fast moving without commercials, and covers the breadth of the Jake program, its challenges and opportunities.

If you have not checked out the latest 2 minute video on Jake on Youtube, you can do so at: http://youtube.com/watch?v=O40bQcnmop4

How do you say it better than this video?

Its is all about the talents of our young troops. What are we afraid of?

I read the articles in today’s news on Defense Secretary Robert Gates’ words to the Air Force Academy and at West Point. In a few notable quotes, Secretary Gates stated ‘‘In my view we can do and we should do more to meet the needs of men and women fighting in the current conflicts while their outcome may still be in doubt,’’ he said. ‘‘My concern is that our services are still not moving aggressively in wartime to provide resources needed now on the battlefield.’’ He was speaking about unmanned aircraft, but he could as easily have been speaking about the need for equipment like the Jake to support our soldiers in their work on the ground, linked with this aerial intelligence.

The Chicago Sun-Times wrote: “Gates, who served in the Air Force in the 1960s as a young officer before he joined the Central Intelligence Agency, urged the officers in his audience to dedicate themselves to thinking creatively. ‘I’m asking you to be part of the solution and part of the future.’ He said the Air Force and the other branches of the military need to protect those in their ranks who are maverick thinkers, who defy convention and push for creative solutions to hard problems.”

Of course, these words resonate directly with our work. And, his words speak to the fact that I am dumbfounded that the huge gap in capabilities, identified and recognized as filled by the Jake, struggles to achieve a “Manhattan Project”. We are yet restrained by what Robert Gates said today as military leaders being “stuck in old ways of doing business”. The Jake’s getting outside of pre-determined requirements within armored vehicles and unmanned vehicles, and its looking at knitting soldier maneuver tactics and air intelligence with our guys on the ground fits Robert Gates’ urging to “… do more and to undertake new and creative ways of thinking about helping the war effort instead of focusing mainly on future threats”.

I don’t know how someone could make a stronger statement for getting some funds on study of the Jake concept. This is highlighted further when Secretary Gates noted amidst these thoughts, and others on being stretched thin when considering the need to be prepared against threats of Iran, that it is obvious that we will have to draw down from Iraq — so why aren’t we innovating in this area defined in concept by the Jakes, where there are ways to cover more area with fewer troops, respond faster, carry more surgical force, and have a lighter and more peacekeeping presence?

I truly wish I could have 15 minutes of our Defense Secretary’s time to allow him a view of what is possible with the Jake concepts, expanded with our defense technology leaders and our talented young soldiers, so he could see the vision we see.

Along this line, I posted a short and ‘punchy’ 2 min. video on Jake on
Youtube.com at:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=O40bQcnmop4

“Jake – Power to Adapt – Its Our Soldier” Please pass this along to your Soldiers and Marines for their view, understanding it will be far more powerful in configuration and teaming than possible to show here.

What is at stake is our ability to rapidly adapt and sustain winning this war against a deadly enemy, and in doing so, raise the resolve of America to win. Secretary Gates spoke also of this weakness of resolve in America today. The Jake can do much here in providing a view that there are answers, solutions and change allowing us to sustain the fight and win.

Can someone call Defense Secretary Gates so we can all get together on this? As Joe Hurlburt says in his video on the website under “Americans Speak”: “People will look at this years in the future and say ‘Why didn’t we do this long ago? It is so obvious.’ And that’s the way with most good inventions, they in hindsight look obvious.”

It’s time to Power ‘Em Up!

A lot of things have been happening since my last blog entry, including speaking briefly with Senator McCain outside the Capitol last week. He recalled our earlier and more detailed discussion with Vermont’s Governor, Jim Douglas, in Vermont a year and half ago, and he knows the need of change for our foot soldier to meet needs of new war and peacekeeping doctrine. We need to be calling on him to step forward from a passive position of watching and expressing Congress’s frustrations in getting new equipment to our troops, and illustrate the leadership he would bring to the Presidency. This is an area where someone could clearly point to a candidate as holding promise of CHANGE.

On my part, some of you may have heard my discussion of the Jake program and Operation American Agility on The Greg Allen Show on talk radio with Frank Salvato on Monday of this week. ( I believe this will be aired again on the Accent Radio Network at 11:00 PM Eastern Time on Saturday the 19th. You can listen to this from your computer through the internet by going to www.therightbalance.com and clicking on ‘Listen Online’. And, it shall later be available on www.newmediajournal.com and I will put a link to this on our site here)

Frank Salvato is the editor of New Media Journal and was standing in for Greg Allen. He did a great job of introducing our program and what it means to our soldiers and our nation. We had a good conversation covering a range of the topics that make up why we are taking this campaign to the American People through this website — to get action for our troops with the freedom for them to redefine supporting force for the foot soldier, with a starting point of what this might look like. We had a good conversation on the historic challenge of change within the US military, and yet how serious the threat is that we face today, and why we need to achieve change rapidly — and, how America can do this, that we do not have to do this overseas just because of our bureaucracy (help me out by joining us and contributing on the website or I will be wrong on this
Speaking of Frank Salvato, he carried an article a while back on the New Media Journal of the Jake story written by my brother and sister-in-law, Nate and Vicki Strong. You may recognize Vicki Strong’s name from her participation with Freedom’s Watch in their national TV ads supporting our troops and speaking of honoring her son, Marine Sgt Jesse Strong’s, sacrifice in Iraq by staying the course to succeed in their mission for the Iraqi people and our security. She also had a powerful part in last year’s CNN documentary “Ambush at the River of Secrets” with Anderson Cooper. From this background, they wanted to provide a way to summarize the story of the Jake and its challenges in getting to our troops. This can be read at:

http://www.newmediajournal.us/guest/nv_strong/2008/02292008.htm

I think this tells the story well (and much better than my ‘engineering’ writing). Join us in getting this message out in support of our American foot soldier.

If we are to sustain winning in a “Long War”, we are going to have to pick up the pace on tactical innovation. Just take a good healthy look at our politics today. Because, any way you look at America’s politics, America’s resolve and America’s military capability to maintain today’s high ‘op tempo’, it is clear that more will need to be done with less. Simply: fewer troops in theater of operations, more stateside, with those on the ground having expanded capabilities to cover more area with a “lighter footprint” and lighter logistical needs. Or — we elect not to win or sustain winning — not a good pick in my book.

Today’s war and future wars call for rapid reaction and conducting the “ground pounding” job of civilian interface, surgically removing the bad guys and peacekeeping. As our enemies continue to adapt, and ‘the Surge’ is drawn down, we need to be getting something in the wings that ‘thinks’ like today’s warfighter and opens the way to a force we are yet to imagine.

We can talk and theorize forever, but things get done and advance by BUILDING SOMETHING (including stuff some think won’t work…read the history of all breakthroughs). Here, “movement creates movement’. The Jake is a starting point, and you can’t have a “Manhattan Project” without a core element to build upon, or a core vision of an outcome. The Jake’s robust 3,000 lb auto-balancing spin-turning with 2,000 lb payload on Humvee size tires, with full range of weapons and robotics opens a new view of “individual heavy fighters” on the ground.

Expand on this and it leads to the ‘force multiplier’ sought by both Marine Corps and Army — innovation of networked, swarm teaming for the urban warfighter and peacekeeper — new tactical capabilities drawing from our vets and defined with today’s young techno-soldier — finding capabilities opening solutions for Iraq and beyond.

The Youtube video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=3uWhEU5rikY illustrates how one agile carrier can open a pipeline of technologies to our foot soldier. It also addresses: “What’s stopping us from change for our foot soldiers?”

And let’s be honest here also. The real challenge is that Jakes open the possibility of revolutionary new levels of power on the ground and in the hands of our troops, revolutionary change affecting tactical doctrine — and anytime this happens, heavy doses of resistance present themselves. Add to this the fact that within multi-layered organizations, the level of difficulty increases exponentially when the change involves a systems-based solution rather than an item-based solution.

So, what if we admit what we are doing is impossible, and view this differently? Maybe there is a solution: If this new realm of power is too disruptive as ‘up-powered’ infantry or as ‘compacted-power’ armor, should we create a new branch of our Armed Services, unfettered by past doctrine and legacy? That way, there is no disruption to core work of existing forces. A fresh team can focus on our nation’s incredible technologies and the talents of our young soldiers for a new force to support Army and Marine infantry in the urban environment, “teamed and moving cover” halfway between our foot soldiers and their Humvee and MRAPs.

In such a case, everybody wins. We overcome fear of our young soldiers and Marines inventing new capabilities and tactics in this area of maneuver, the stuff of their generation. By giving them Jakes, “individual heavy fighters”, as a catalyst and letting them loose we create the situation retired Marine Corps Commandant, General A.M. Gray spoke of in saying: “…they will come up with 100 things you never thought of.” — all the stuff to attract this generation’s best recruits and help retain the mid-level leadership our services need: Solutions to help accomplish our missions and get our troops home.

So, let’s get to work and get some power staged “in the wings”. Let’s capitalize on the talents of today’s soldier.

I appreciate the great article that Frank Gaffney Jr. wrote on the Jake, and a bit of the Jake story, for Tuesday’s Washington Times at:

http://washingtontimes.com/article/20080304/COMMENTARY03/237166163/1012/
commentary

Frank J. Gaffney Jr. is president of the Center for Security Policy and a columnist for The Washington Times. He is widely known for his serious analysis, communication and work for our nation’s “Security through Strength”. (He has seen a Jake prototype provide a demo of its maneuver agility in an underground garage in D.C., which proved to be an effective place to do a demo, since no other tactical vehicle could have maneuvered as and where the Jake did, with the payload the Jake will carry. Frank heard leaders in the Marine Corps say they have this need and that nothing is available with the capabilities of the Jake. To this situation, Frank believes that America must do all it can for its troops and not let political or military process stop us when an opportunity is seen to provide more protection, tactics and power for our soldiers and strengthen our nation’s defense.)

To support this, I have posted a new video on Youtube: The “American Agility - Opportunity for Soldier Power”

You can see this at the link here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=3uWhEU5rikY

Or by going to www.youtube.com and doing a search there for americansunleashed or american agility

This video provides a view of the overall situation of the power gap existing halfway between the foot soldier and the HMMWV. This is aimed at a Congressional and American audience to help them understand the need for funding in this realm, and provide a framework for thought for those within our defense thinktanks. This speaks to advances possible in a whole sector that is critical to success of our Soldiers and Marines within this and future conflicts. In this the JAKE is an illustration of the ensuing opportunities for all defense technology companies…thus able to pull on full industry efforts relevant to the changing battlespace that is as much peacekeeping as warfare…spoken of in the defense world as the move into “4th and 5th generation warfare”.

You will also see a number of other videos on Youtube that provide a view of what the Jake will open in tactical capabilities when developed as a teaming system. I appreciate your support here at Operation American Agility as we stand for our troops in a unique way, directly working to get them the hardware to allow them to define the future of soldier power.

I have a discussion thread “Exploring Tactical Support of Mega Exo-Skeletons in Urban Ops” on Small Wars Council in the category: Futurists & Theorists. Contributors to this Forum are mostly military strategy guys involved with, and interested in, forward leaning ideas and general discussion on all things military. The spectrum of insights and comments come out in their postings.

In this, my inclusion of the words Mega Exo-Skeleton in the title launched the discussion in ways I wouldn’t have thought, like one post’s: “Why do I have visions of Ripley/Sigourney Weaver in that cargo-handling “exo skeleton” wrasslin’ with the Alien?” This bought up quite a debate on “Mechs”, legged robots and all.

This brought to my mind thoughts I have had for some time now:

I have found that one of the biggest mental blocks to powering up our soldiers is Science Fiction images of the future. We are so hung up on thinking an exo-skeleton must have legs…yet we all get onto, or into, something that has wheels anytime we really want to get somewhere and do it with some speed and attitude…

…legs on all of our tech lab’s robots today take all the unit’s power to just walk around…this is due to physics of motion… rolling is as simple as it gets. This is why all the robots deployed in theater today are on wheels or tracks…simplicity and reality. Are legged robots and “vehicles” cool? Yes, for sure! Is there a future? Yeah, for sure! (and when we get nano-engines or cold fusion nano-reactors… combined with haptic and robotic active suspending and reactive joint/”muscle” systems… the game will change)

Wheels work…today. Our war is today…

The Jake in its next version could be a bit like the sci-fi gun wielding RoboCop’s image (particularly when you consider the weapon systems in our defense tech labs), but the key is to insert enough healthy farm shop commonsense to allow us to kick more butt today.

Time to throw some mechanic farmers and woodsmen into the mix to help our foot soldiers.

Time to “Power ‘Em Up”

I was doing web research the other day on lift capabilities of various air assets and ran into a Popular Mechanics January article on the needs for heavier air lift and a call for engineers to work on this and propose solutions. The link to the second page of this article, and the picture proposing a gigantic helicopter, sling loaded with one future tank going into the mountains (that struck me dumbfounded), is below:

http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/military_law/4245924.html?page=2

Maybe I am missing something, but why are we asking our national engineering talent to focus on airlift of tanks and armor (that our enemy is driving us to make heavier and heavier, because they know an expensive target when they see one). Even an engineer focused on an oblique metalurgical stress/strain phenomenon in a secluded cubicle surrounded by Dilbert cartoons is aware that the Soviets left Afghanistan due to the pain of the plethora of tanks and helicopters that were blasted out of functional existence by guys sitting up in the rocks with shoulder fired weapons. They also have awareness that the general thread of talk within today’s military strategies is about achieving greater dispersion of light agile force; soldiers on foot winning hearts and minds. General Petraeus is articulate, and has made this pretty clear.

So, as I commented on the blog section of the Popular Mechanics airlift article, while there are tremendous ideas discussed for advance in air-lift, and there are likely places we could use greater carrying power, we would be better served by looking at today’s objectives at the delivery end. As I have mentioned in earlier blog posts, the debate contines on how we as a nation are trying to just make modifications and adjustments (nothing disruptive) in use of third generation warfare hardware to fight what leading military thinkers identify as 4th and 5th generation war and peacekeeping, much of this defined by our enemy.

I asked, why not look at three Chinooks carrying pods of four ‘nano-force fighters’ each (I can say Jakes here) (at 5,000lbs each with weapons and gear, three soldiers per force unit, two to dismount in fight, three if a unit is projected forward robotically)? In my example, this would put a 36 man, 12 fighter unit swarm on the ground for fast maneuver of 12 units with mix of firepower (some equal to today’s tanks), more applicable to today’s fight and societal stability objectives. I fully believe that equipment that supports tactics change occurring at the “pointy end of the spear” would be a better focus of our national engineering talent for the moment. In fact, today’s defense tech labs have decisive lethal and non-lethal weapons, sensors, and all the ‘wammers and jammers’ needed by our soldiers. The problem: it is just too much for our foot soldier to carry…and extrapolating this out a bit and with a bit more analysis…what we need is an agile platform with a 2,000 lb payload that can carry this stuff and move in a manner moving with our soldiers. The Jake is a solid starting point. There are teams of engineers ready to help work out full solutions, applications and supporting technologies. I propose it is time for the nation to ask the right questions and pull the engineering guys into the equation who know how to make rugged compact agile ground ’stuff’.

But, brace yourself, because there will be change when new capabilities and agility get to our young generation of warfighters. They will then use this to innovate some wild tactics. But then, isn’t that the point? Our enemy has changed… and we do want to win. Don’t we??

When young Soldiers and Marines see a Jake, they ‘get it’. I am with our young Soldiers and Marines on this. Let’s Power ‘Em Up!

Defense Tech’s website has a good article discussing “Does Airpower Create Insurgents?” (see link below)

http://www.defensetech.org/archives/003984.html

What is further interesting are the comments below the article. Quite a bit of the discussion within the article and resulting comments center on the new Field Manual FM3-24 on Counter-Insurgency. An example is the article’s “But the FM 3-24 counterinsurgency manual recognizes that ‘bombing, even with the most precise weapons, can cause unintended civilian casualties.’ Consequently, ‘an air strike can cause collateral damage that turns people against the host-nation government and provides insurgents with a major propaganda victory.’ In other words, bombing is a proverbial Catch-22. Insurgents or terrorists may be killed, but no matter how much care is taken to avoid non-combatant casualties, innocent civilians may also be killed.”

Amongst the comments on the article, was a post of Bryan2020 at February 4, 2008 01:27 PM: “… For the record, I was and am in favor of a successful Iraqi outcome, even if it takes 20 years. But I am searching for 5GW strategy to dominant and defeat 4GW (which the US sucks at) terrorists/insurgents. But I digress.” Read his whole post, which is insightful. He ends with “I’d prefer the US only use Apaches, AC130, Predators, and not fighter/bombers. Perhaps that could be an acceptable trade off. However the best strategy for Iraq would be 500,000 US MP/CA/IRT troops, but that is impossible.”

As Bryon2020 speaks of 5th generation warfare (5GW) strategies to meet 4GW of the terrorists, he speaks more accurate to the target than others who we hear repeating that easily voiced phrase “we need change”. What he highlights is the challenge of covering broad areas on the ground and amongst dispersed situations…staying focused to peacekeeping amongst civilians…and yet having major “smack down” capabilities…sounds like the theories spoken by our Special Ops in their advancing first concepts on the Jakes.

I propose that the best way to get change and get innovative is to actually start making, doing and trying something significantly different. This doesn’t seem like a tough line of thought. But, it is tough in bureaucratic organizations focused on, and rewarding, incremental change and viewing significant change as disruptive. Well, our world has been, and is being, disrupted. What America has is creativity, talent and young troops that are brought up on technology and who embrace it. Wouldn’t this be a good time to let this loose? What are we afraid of? Wouldn’t this increase the probability of achieving change?…of finding some 5GW strategies?

This is the core of what Operation American Agility is about. But, America is going to have to join together and not just watch.

We have great Soldiers and Marines on the ground today. Let’s Power ‘Em Up!!

Today is a solemn time for my family. It is a tough time, remembering the wonderful memories of Jesse Strong and all that he accomplished and all those he touched in his short life. It is three years since January 26th, 2005 when he and three other Marines were killed in Iraq’s Anbar Province. I think of him, Cpl Jonathon Bowling, LCpl Karl Linn, Cpl Christopher Weaver and their families. I praise God that we have men and women who will stand guard for us, who will do the difficult and sacrifice for the good of a nation. I pray today that what we do as everyday Americans can be reflected upon as being part of keeping America good and deserving of such sacrifice. I think the words of the song “Because of the Brave” on the dedication video says it all (on the americanagility website or you can cut and paste link below)

There was a 9-11. Our enemies maintain full intent of repeating such shock and chaos on America whenever they can get the chance. They hope to increase the scale. Our men and women are at war right now in a fight that is key to stabilizing a critical region. Our troops are setting an example of freedom and hope. They are drawing out and learning all that we can of the interconnectivity and threats existing in the hidden world of radical Islam, as this conflict is revealing the full intent and extent of this generation’s enemy. Our men and women in uniform in this fight are providing a visible example of the ability to stand against this tyranny. This something desperately needed by moderate Islam in holding to tolerance and a peaceable place in the world society.

Yet, watch our 24/7 news and you would have little clue that this fight for survival of world freedoms is happening.

We all have busy lives. But when we grab our news, what are we getting? They are analyzing Hillary’s statement to Barack, and Barack’s response. They are analyzing it 50 ways, providing in-depth focus on what the strategies are behind this word or that, and then finding a way to draw in how this might impact Romney’s position in the mind of Florida voters…and on and on…and then there is a celebrity (made by the media, not celebrity by any act of selfless heroism or sacrifice for others) and he or she is in trouble, or they talk of the result of polls of the public’s thoughts to determine what they should have done or should do…and on and on.

Our focus is off.

If you visit the life of a family with a son, daughter, father or mom in the Iraq or Afghanistan, everything becomes clear. There are issues that are significant and ones that are not. Or visit a Gold Star Mom and Dad. Tomorrow on the 26th of January, Vicki and Nathan Strong are painfully aware of the price of an issue that is critical. They are aware of the price paid and being paid for our freedoms (our freedoms from care, our freedom to jabber on and on about anything and nothing at all). Tomorrow is three years since Nate and Vicki had two Marines in dress blues come to their door and tell them that their son, Marine Sgt Jesse Strong, was killed in Iraq. The Bowling, Linn and Weaver families received the same painful visits. Their sons all believed in the long range view of the mission they were engaged in: freedom. These young men knew the price and they were focused.

God has His special reasons and timing, some of which we will only find out later. Let’s remember our men and women who have stood and are standing guard for us, our troops on the streets, in peacekeeping and also in chaos that needs to be reigned in.

Let’s keep our focus and let’s do what we can. Let’s Power ‘Em Up.
