Ops Brief 086: Daily Drop - 11 Aug 2025 - DoD Turns 76 & Space Force Gets Part-Time
Peaches is back with your August 11 Ops Brief — and as always, the military circus doesn’t disappoint. From the DoD’s 76th birthday party (cake not included) to the Navy handing CENTCOM over like a hot potato, it’s been a week. We hit the SkillsBridge hustle, Red Flag roaring over Nellis, Space Force flexing with upgraded sensors and a part-time gig option, and yes — a Guard Special Tactics Squadron in Tampa is on the way. Also, we cover why the X-37B space plane might be cooler than your favorite sci-fi movie. Buckle up — this is your unapologetic, caffeine-fueled sitrep.
🔥 Key Takeaways:
- DoD hits 76 years of “peace through strength” and global flexing
- Navy Admiral Cooper takes CENTCOM from the Army — joint drama continues
- SkillsBridge: your ticket to post-military life if your chain says yes
- Red Flag Nellis turns the desert into a decibel warzone
- Air Battle Managers + AI = faster, meaner, deadlier C2
- Space Force upgrades sensors, preps the X-37B, and offers part-time gigs
- Florida Guard STS approved — Pararescue, CCT, SR, TACP all in the mix
- Fallen Airman from Vietnam finally comes home
- Boeing bags $2.8B for space dominance
