Chief of Space Operations' Planning Guidance: 1st Chief of Space Operations - Hardcover

by United States Space Force (Author), John W. Raymond (Author)

Must read for all Space Force personnel and highly recommended for anyone interested in its activities, per the Introduction:

"This Chief of Space Operations' Planning Guidance (CPG) provides foundational direction for the Space Force to advance National and Department of Defense (DoD) strategic objectives. This authoritative Service-level planning guidance supersedes previous guidance and provides the context and outline for our new Service design. In some areas, the CPG will define specific actions, timelines and offices of primary responsibility. In other areas, the CPG describes my intent and desired outcomes. This guidance is intended to empower space professionals at all echelons to take initiative consistent with their delegated authority and mission focus to implement Service priorities. To enable initiatives, I will also specify several efforts that should be deprioritized to generate resources for reinvestment.

This CPG communicates my intent and defines the capabilities and culture the USSF will pursue over my tenure. I will update intent, expand on guidance and review the progress of transformation initiatives via Force Design guidance annually. I expect all echelons to read, understand and implement this guidance.

This durable hardcover case laminate edition offers a high quality reading experience that can be a preferable alternative to flipping through dogeared printouts or squinting at a PDF on the big screen.
