Written by Editor

The Air Force announced the assignment of Brig. Gen. Kevin Kelly to be Deputy DOD Chief Information Officer for Command, Communications and Computers (C4) and Information Infrastructure Capabilities. The post is a critical player in DOD positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) policy and decisions. The incumbent has also served as a part of the inter-department senior leadership team supporting the PNT Executive Committee led by the Deputy Secretaries of Defense and Transportation.

The incumbent is Maj. Gen. Sandra Finan who has been in the job since January 2016. Before her Maj. Gen. Robert Wheeler served in the position.

What Can YOU Do? How Can YOU Help?

PNT is the quiet backbone of everything but too many leaders still don't see the risk.

But you do. You understand the systems, the dependencies, the failure chains. That insight is rare — and it's exactly what your country needs right now. Contact your government leaders and industry decision-makers and tell them resilient PNT isn't a feature — it's the foundation everything else depends on.
