Pentagon leaders are trying to diversify the military and the civilian workforce of the Department of Defense, Clarence Johnson told an audience at a luncheon and awards ceremony hosted by Latina Style magazine in Washington, D.C. Hispanic representation in the military has doubled since the 1980s, said Johnson, who is a top equal opportunity official, with the group representing some nine percent of all active duty forces. However, he said “Hispanics must be better represented in the leadership ranks.”
The Pentagon should establish a dedicated budget to support Golden Dome’s positioning, navigation, and timing needs and assign a PNT lead to coordinate needed improvements to ground and space-based navigation systems, according to a new report from the National Security Space Association.
