USCENTCOM Is Open to New, Innovative Ideas

Brig. Gen. James Turinetti, USA, U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) J6, addressed the chapter at its March Luncheon. He commented on three general areas for the J6: people, partners and innovation. Mainly speaking about innovation, he announced CENTCOM has hired a chief information officer for the first time and will be creating a "Shark Tank" type event in the coming months. They are also working on a website for vendors to interact with the command and to introduce new technologies. The chapter recognized Lt. Megan Getlinger, USAF, and Cheyenne Hasse with Leadership Awards for the first and second quarter.
