  • MIL-OSI Submissions: Australia – New research reveals most Australians unprepared for future health care decisions

    Source: Advance Care Planning Australia

    A landmark national study commissioned by Advance Care Planning Australia reveals that only one in three Australians (33%) have taken steps to plan for their future health care, highlighting a widespread lack of preparation for critical medical decisions.

    Dr Catherine Joyce, National Manager for Advance Care Planning Australia says the findings show a major gap in routine health care.

    “This study shows that advance care planning is not a standard part of basic health care in Australia with many Australians missing the opportunity to plan ahead and ensure their health care preferences are known and respected,” Dr Joyce said.

    This is the first national prevalence study to take a modern approach to advance care planning. Rather than focusing solely on document completion, the research considers other key elements such as talking with loved ones, choosing substitute decision-makers, and overall motivators and attitudes that drive uptake.

    “We often think of advance care planning as just filling out a form, but it’s much more than that. It’s about open communication, understanding your options, and making sure your choices guide your care – especially during life’s most difficult moments,” Dr Joyce said.

    “While it might feel uncomfortable to think about, planning ahead can be one of the most empowering and compassionate choices you make. It brings peace of mind to individuals. It also reduces the burden on family, fri

    Released 24/06/2025

    The ACT Government is delivering on its commitment to support a new, modern home for RSPCA ACT, with an initial $2 million investment to progress pre-construction work on the much-anticipated Project Home facility.

    The grant will enable RSPCA ACT to advance critical work including finalising the facility’s design, securing development approvals and commencing procurement processes ahead of construction.

    Minister for City Services Tara Cheyne said the investment marks a significant milestone in the delivery of a purpose-built, fit-for-purpose facility that will enhance animal welfare in the ACT.

    “This is an exciting step forward in building a better home for RSPCA ACT and the animals they care for,” Minister Cheyne said.

    “The current facilities are ageing and no longer meet the needs of the animals housed there, nor the community and staff. A modern facility will improve safety, support best practice in animal management and deliver better outcomes for animals and the people who care for them.”

    “We’re working closely with RSPCA ACT to ensure this project is delivered in a way that meets community expectations and supports their vital work across the Territory,” Minister Cheyne said.

    “The ACT Government met with the RSPCA ACT Board and CEO last week to discuss the project’s next phase, with strong commitment from all parties to get the project construction ready.”

    “This new facility will support RSPCA ACT to continue their crucial role as a strategic partner of the ACT Government in promoting animal welfare and protecting companion animals across our city,” Minister Cheyne said.

    The initial $2 million investment will enable RSPCA ACT to partner with a designer and builder to determine how to complete the facility within the balance of the ACT Government’s total $40 million commitment. The remainder of the funding will be released in a second grant when the project is ready to move into the construction phase.

    Treasurer Chris Steel said the funding reflects the ACT Government’s commitment to delivering on election promises while supporting the infrastructure needs of key community partners.

    “This funding is part of our responsible Budget strategy to invest in projects that make a meaningful difference – in this case, supporting the RSPCA to provide modern, safe and compassionate care for animals,” said Treasurer Chris Steel.

  • MIL-OSI USA: SBA Offers Disaster Assistance to Missouri Small Businesses, Private Nonprofits and Residents Affected by Adverse Weather

    Source: United States Small Business Administration

    SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) announced the availability of low interest federal disaster loans to Missouri small businesses, private nonprofits and residents to offset physical and economic losses from severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, heavy rains, large hail, flooding and flash flooding occurring April 29. The SBA issued a disaster declaration in response to a request received from Gov. Mike Kehoe on June 21.

    The disaster declaration covers the Missouri counties of Barry, Christian, Dade, Dallas, Greene, Jasper, Lawrence, McDonald, Newton, Polk, Stone and Webster as well as the Kansas county of Cherokee, and the Oklahoma county of Ottawa.

    Businesses and nonprofits are eligible to apply for business physical disaster loans and may borrow up to $2 million to repair or replace disaster-damaged or destroyed real estate, machinery and equipment, inventory, and other business assets.

    Homeowners and renters are eligible to apply for home and personal property loans and may borrow up to $100,000 to replace or repair personal property, such as clothing, furniture, cars, and appliances. Homeowners may apply for up to $500,000 to replace or repair their primary residence.

    Applicants may be eligible for a loan increase of up to 20% of their physical damages, as verified by the SBA, for mitigation purposes. Eligible mitigation improvements include insulating pipes, walls and attics, weather stripping doors and windows, and installing storm windows to help protect property and occupants from future disasters.

    SBA’s Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) program is available to eligible small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives, nurseries and private nonprofit (PNP)organizations impacted by financial losses directly related to this disaster. The SBA is unable to provide disaster loans to agricultural producers, farmers, or ranchers, except for aquaculture enterprises.

    EIDLs are for working capital needs caused by the disaster and are available even if the business or PNP did not suffer any physical damage. They may be used to pay fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable, and other bills not paid due to the disaster.

    Interest rates are as low as 4% for businesses, 3.62% for nonprofits, and 2.81% for homeowners and renters, with terms up to 30 years. Interest does not begin to accrue, and payments are not due until 12 months from the date of the first loan disbursement. The SBA sets loan amounts and terms based on each applicant’s financial condition.

    “When disasters strike, SBA’s Disaster Loan Outreach Centers play a vital role in helping small businesses and their communities recover,” said Chris Stallings, associate administrator of the Office of Disaster Recovery and Resilience at the SBA. “At these centers, SBA specialists assist business owners and residents with disaster loan applications and provide information on the full range of recovery programs available.”

  • MIL-OSI Canada: Joint Statement on the Visit to Ottawa of His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the United Arab Emirates

    Source: Government of Canada News

    Ottawa, June 23, 2025

    The Honourable Anita Anand, Minister of Foreign Affairs, hosted His Highness, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), for a visit to Canada from June 19 to 20, 2025. The visit reaffirmed the shared commitment of Canada and the UAE to deepen bilateral cooperation across trade, investment, innovation, people-to-people ties, international development, and regional peace and security.

    During the visit, His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the UAE, met with the Right Honourable Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada. The two sides discussed the growing ties between Canada and the UAE. On behalf of HH Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, HH Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan extended to Prime Minister Carney an invitation to visit the UAE this year.

    Canada and the UAE will continue to deepen their bilateral relationship by exploring new opportunities for cooperation, with particular emphasis on economic ties. Both countries welcomed the launch of the Dubai Chambers office in Toronto—the organization’s first in North America—which will serve as a strategic platform to foster deeper commercial ties. The Honourable Maninder Sidhu, Canada’s Minister of International Trade, attended the launch of the International Dubai Chambers alongside His Excellency Sultan bin Saeed Al Mansoori, the UAE Foreign Minister’s Envoy to Canada. The new office comes as part of the Dubai Global initiative and deepening economic ties with Canada. This opening reflects a shared ambition to unlock new opportunities for collaboration in priority sectors, including artificial intelligence, energy and infrastructure, and underscores Canada’s important role in the UAE’s global trade and investment strategy.

    Both countries also recognized the important role of the Canada-UAE Business Council in bringing together business leaders from both countries to develop actionable business opportunities and advance national economic objectives. Building on the strong foundation of institutional partnerships—exemplified by the global collaboration between Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec and DP World across 15 ports and logistics parks—both countries expressed their intent to pursue new avenues for strategic investment and long-term economic engagement. Canada and the UAE reiterated their commitment to the swift conclusion of the ongoing negotiations for a Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (FIPA).

    The Honourable Maninder Sidhu, Canada’s Minister of International Trade, and His Excellency Dr. Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi, UAE Minister of Foreign Trade, co-led a business round table on June 19, 2025, organized by the Canada-UAE Business Council.

    Artificial Intelligence, Emerging Technologies, and Digital Innovation: Recognizing the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI), both countries reaffirmed their interest in exploring collaboration in this critical domain. Canada, home to one of the world’s most dynamic AI ecosystems, recently appointed its first Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation, reflecting a renewed national commitment to responsible AI leadership. The UAE, a global leader in AI and the first to appoint a Minister of State for AI, has articulated a dedicated foreign policy position on AI, emphasizing principles of international cooperation, sustainable development and responsible governance. In this regard, the UAE continues to invest in talent development, infrastructure and technology-access frameworks.

    The Ministers welcomed ongoing dialogue between institutions and stakeholders to explore cooperation in AI and emerging technology research, commercialization, and responsible deployment. Both sides emphasized the importance of inclusive, secure, responsible, and sustainable AI development that supports innovation and economic growth.

    Water: Both countries recognized that water lies at the core of climate action, affirming their shared commitment to addressing global water challenges. Both sides underscored the need to strengthen international cooperation, highlighting the upcoming 2026 UN Water Conference, to be co-hosted by the UAE and Senegal, as a key opportunity to advance global water efforts. They also stressed the importance of investing in water technology and innovation to scale up water-scarcity solutions, as exemplified by the UAE’s launch of the Mohamed bin Zayed Water Initiative in early 2024. 

    Energy and Natural Resources: Canada and the UAE reaffirmed their shared commitment to advancing energy security and accelerating a just transition to a low-carbon economy. The UAE’s growing investment footprint in Canada demonstrates the strong commercial foundation for future cooperation. Canada welcomed the UAE’s interest in formalizing energy collaboration. Canada recognized the UAE’s pioneering efforts in the energy sphere and welcomed the UAE’s interest in promoting greater energy collaboration on an international level. Canada also expressed support for continued dialogue on joint initiatives in decarbonization, liquified natural gas, nuclear, hydrogen, and critical mineral value chains. In this context, Canada and the UAE highlighted their dedication to build on their current ties in the fields of energy and critical energy-transition minerals, while including a focus on promoting investment opportunities and enhancing mutual investment attraction.

    International Peace and Security: Canada and the UAE reiterated their shared commitment to promoting peace, stability, and inclusive prosperity across the Middle East and beyond. Both countries emphasized the importance of sustained diplomatic engagement, humanitarian leadership, and multilateral cooperation in addressing geopolitical challenges. They unequivocally condemned all acts of terrorism. They reaffirmed the importance of maintaining and promoting peace and coexistence and their rejection of intolerance, hate speech, discrimination and all forms of extremism.

    Canada and the UAE also restated that the principles of dialogue, adherence to international law, and respect for state sovereignty are essential to resolving the conflict between Israel and Iran. Both sides stressed the need for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza; the release of all remaining hostages; and the urgent, sustainable, unhindered, at-scale flow of aid to address the appalling humanitarian catastrophe. Canada and the UAE also underscored the importance of sustained efforts to advance a serious political horizon toward the two-state solution. The Ministers reaffirmed the urgent need for de-escalation and urged all parties to refrain from actions that further destabilize the region. Both sides reasserted that diplomatic engagement remains essential to ensuring long-term regional stability and international security.

    Joint Committee for Cooperation: Both countries are actively using the Joint Committee for Cooperation (JC) as a strategic platform to drive forward a deeper, more institutionalized partnership. Through regular, high-level dialogue, the JC is advancing collaboration in priority areas such as trade and investment, defence and security, and climate and energy. Canada will host the next Ministerial meeting, reinforcing the shared commitment to sustained, results-driven engagement.

    International Development Cooperation: Canada and the UAE reaffirmed their mutual determination to address pressing global development and humanitarian challenges. Canada welcomed the UAE’s role as a global development and humanitarian partner. Recognizing the unprecedented scale and severity of humanitarian crises around the world, Canada and the UAE reaffirmed their shared commitment to cooperate closely in delivering assistance and empowering communities. Both countries underscored the importance of this partnership, and committed to leveraging their complementary strengths, particularly during a time of intensifying conflicts around the world.

    Canada commended the UAE’s global leadership in humanitarian and mediation efforts, including in Gaza, where the UAE has emerged as the largest bilateral aid donor, and in Ukraine, where the UAE has facilitated 15 prisoner-of-war exchanges, consistent with Canada’s ongoing efforts to address the human dimension of the war. These efforts underscore a shared commitment to upholding international humanitarian law and fostering dialogue in times of conflict. Both sides emphasized the importance of pursuing durable and just solutions grounded in international law and inclusive political processes. They expressed their mutual intent to continue working together on their shared goals of advancing stability and development, promoting tolerance and coexistence, protecting human dignity, and addressing hate speech, discrimination and all forms of extremism.

    People to People: Canada and the UAE celebrated their deepening people-to-people ties, which serve as a cornerstone of the growing bilateral partnership. Canada welcomed the increasing number of Emirati students in Canadian higher education institutions, reflecting mutual recognition of academic excellence. The UAE acknowledged the valuable contributions of the more than 60,000 Canadians living and working in the Emirates, who continue to enrich the diversity, innovation and vibrancy of UAE society.

    The two countries also stressed their shared commitment to cultural exchange and intercultural dialogue to foster mutual understanding and respect. Both sides recognize the landmark presentation of the “As the Sun Appears from Beyond” exhibition, which celebrates the richness and diversity of contemporary Islamic art, and recently showcased in Toronto through a partnership between the Aga Khan Museum and the UAE Ministry of Culture.

    Conclusion: The two sides reaffirmed their strong and growing relationship, rooted in mutual respect, shared objectives, and a common vision for sustainable prosperity and global stability. The visit marked a significant step forward in the Canada-UAE relationship. Both countries are committed to maintaining high-level engagement, concluding further mutually beneficial instruments, and building a durable, forward-looking partnership that delivers tangible benefits for their peoples and contributes to global peace and prosperity.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Lifesaving funding boosts for Kiwis’ outdoor safety

    Source: New Zealand Government

    Associate Transport Minister James Meager has confirmed an additional $76.7 million for New Zealand Search and Rescue over three years, to ensure 12 organisations can continue their lifesaving operations.
    Additionally, the Government has announced an investment of $624,000 over the same period, to help maintain and improve recreational aviation safety across the country.
    “New Zealand has one of the largest and most challenging search and rescue regions in the world, so it’s vital to ensure they have necessary funding to deliver their critical services,” Mr Meager says.  
    “Ensuring Kiwis are safe as they go about their activities, either for work or leisure, is one of the Government’s top transport priorities.
    “Last year, 152 lives were saved, 921 people were assisted and 794 people were rescued through the work of the search and rescue sector. This is thanks to the dedication of than 11,000 people involved in the industry – 80 per cent of whom are volunteers.”    
    $542,000 will go towards the New Zealand Aviation Federation to deliver updated Instrument Flight Procedures at unattended aerodromes, which pilots use to safely take off and land at airports across the country.
    An $82,000 funding boost will also enhance safety at those sites, paying for further training and education to remind pilots of the necessary safety procedures.
    “The investment also underlines the Government’s commitment to helping grow our economy by supporting a safe and secure recreational aviation system,” Mr Meager says.
    “Many Kiwis and visitors love to get out and explore our beautiful country. Today’s announcements will help keep everyone safe when they’re outdoors – whether that’s on the land, water or in the air.”

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
    June 23, 2025

    HONOLULU — Governor Josh Green, M.D., has ordered the United States and state of Hawai‘i flags to be flown at half-staff at all state offices and agencies, as well as the Hawai‘i National Guard, from sunrise on Tuesday, June 24 to sunset on Thursday, June 26. Memorial services will be on Wednesday, June 25.

    “Few people have lived a life that reads more like an epic novel than John Henry Felix,” said Governor Green. “From assembling Red Cross care kits as a schoolboy for children caught in war, to risking his life in war zones to bring relief to refugees and orphans, to building institutions that continue to serve our people today, John Henry embodied service above self for over eight decades. His fingerprints are on the humanitarian infrastructure of entire regions — from Kalaupapa to Cambodia — and his work has saved and bettered the lives of untold thousands. Hawai‘i has lost a giant in compassion and public service. On the day we lower our flags, we honor not only his remarkable achievements but the boundless heart behind them.”

    Born and raised in Honolulu, John Henry Felix dedicated his life to advancing the common good. His roles spanned Chair Emeritus of the Hawai‘i Red Cross, founder of multiple Red Cross Societies in the Pacific, field delegate in international relief efforts across Southeast Asia and Africa, Chair of the American Red Cross International Committee, and distinguished leader in the Boy Scouts of America and March of Dimes. Among countless honors, he was the first American to receive the International Red Cross Dunant Medal of Honor and was designated a Distinguished Eagle Scout.

    Throughout his life, Felix demonstrated an unparalleled ability to merge bold vision with boots-on-the-ground action — whether it was building a prosthetics factory in Cambodia, leading refugee repatriation efforts, or personally comforting orphans in war-torn regions. His “Walking Blood Donor Program” in remote Pacific islands — a precursor to mobile blood banks — reflected his signature ingenuity and deep care.

  • MIL-OSI Security: DHS Releases Statement on Major Victory for Trump Administration and the American People on Deporting Criminal Illegal Aliens to Third Countries

    Source: US Department of Homeland Security

    WASHINGTON – Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secured a legal victory in its efforts to remove the worst-of-the-worst illegal aliens. The U.S. Supreme Court issued a 6-3 order, staying a District Court’s order pending appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.  

    With this decision, DHS can finally exercise its undisputed authority to deport criminal illegal aliens–who are not wanted in their home country–to third countries that have agreed to accept them. This order comes after an activist judge caused Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and the eight barbaric criminals to be stranded in Djibouti.   

    Attributable to Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin:

    “The Supreme Court ruling is a victory for the safety and security of the American people. The Biden Administration allowed millions of illegal aliens to flood our country, and now, the Trump Administration can exercise its undisputed authority to remove these criminal illegal aliens and clean up this national security nightmare.

    “If these activist judges had their way, aliens who are so uniquely barbaric that their own countries won’t take them back, including convicted murderers, child rapists and drug traffickers, would walk free on American streets.

    “DHS can now execute its lawful authority and remove illegal aliens to a country willing to accept them.

    “Fire up the deportation planes.”

    Source: United States House of Representatives – Congressman Hakeem Jeffries (8th District of New York)

    Today, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries held a press conference where he criticized the Rubber Stamp Republicans for not standing up for the American people while Donald Trump unleashes chaos, cruelty and corruption. 

    LEADER JEFFRIES: Good afternoon, everyone. The Trump administration continues to unleash chaos, cruelty and corruption on the American people. Donald Trump and extreme MAGA Republicans have been a complete and total failure domestically and internationally. Donald Trump promised that on day one of his presidency, he would end the war in Ukraine. He promised on day one of his presidency, he would free the hostages to bring about peace in the Middle East. And Donald Trump promised that on day one of his presidency, costs would go down in the United States of America. None of it has happened. Instead, costs in the United States of America aren’t going down, they’re going up. Donald Trump and extreme MAGA Republicans are crashing the economy in real time and driving us toward a possible recession. Donald Trump and House Republicans have not done a single thing to lower the high cost of living in the United States of America. Not a single thing. Instead, Republicans are trying to jam this One Big, Ugly Bill down the throats of the American people.

    The GOP Tax Scam represents the largest cut to Medicaid in American history. It’s an all-out assault on the healthcare of the American people. Children, families, people with disabilities, seniors, veterans will all be hurt by the GOP Tax Scam. Premiums, copays and deductibles will go up for tens of millions of Americans. Hospitals will close. Nursing homes will shut down. Community-based health clinics will be unable to operate, and because more than 16 or so million people in America will lose their healthcare, people in this country will die. That’s what Republican governance has brought to the United States of America. The GOP Tax Scam will also cut nutritional assistance from the American people. Children and seniors and older Americans will literally have food ripped away from them. And this all-out assault on healthcare, this all-out assault on nutritional assistance, is being done by Republicans so they can provide their billionaire donors with massive tax breaks that they don’t need and don’t deserve. The one big, ugly Republican bill will hurt everyday Americans in order to reward billionaires.

    At the same time, Donald Trump and his actions—which do not appear to be consistent with the United States Constitution—takes unilateral offensive military action without seeking the approval of the United States Congress. The use of military force, which is offensive in nature, must be approved by the House and the Senate. That’s according to the Constitution. It’s not optional, Donald. It’s not. The framers of the Constitution actually gave Congress the power to declare war for a reason. So the American people, through their elected representatives, would have the opportunity to debate the issue and make some decisions as it relates to what’s in the best interest and the national security of the American people. Donald Trump and the administration chose to ignore the Constitution. And so they’re going to have to come before Congress and explain their justification for an offensive military strike against Iran.

    Yes, we can never allow Iran to become a nuclear power. And of course, Israel has the right to defend itself, and we’ll support Israel’s security in an ironclad manner. But the Trump administration intentionally decided to ignore the aggressive diplomacy that was available to it, to try to address the Iranian nuclear threat and ignore the requirements of the Constitution, and now they’ve got to explain why. And we expect that justification, not just at the classified briefing behind closed doors tomorrow, but we expect them to explain to the American people the basis of the strike. What were the results in terms of actually thwarting Iran’s capacity to become a nuclear power? And what are the Trump administration’s plans to avoid another potentially disastrous war in the Middle East, with thousands of American lives are potentially at risk? What is your plan to avoid another foreign war, a promise you made, a promise that Donald Trump made to the American people last year? And just like every other major promise that he made on the campaign trail, he’s failed to keep.

    BEIJING, June 23 — China has earmarked 300 million yuan (about 41.8 million U.S. dollars) of central government funding to support local authorities in dealing with natural disasters and carrying out emergency rescue efforts, the Ministry of Finance (MOF) said on Monday.

    The funds, allocated by the MOF and the Ministry of Emergency Management, were provided to seven provincial-level regions, including Hunan, Guangdong, Chongqing, Guizhou and Hubei.

    The funding support comes as some parts of south China experience heavy rains, leading to severe flooding and geological disasters in certain regions, according to the MOF.

    The funds will be used for emergency response and rescue efforts, the evacuation and resettlement of affected people, the removal of hazardous objects, risk mitigation, and risk inspections to prevent secondary disasters, it said.

    USAG BAVARIA – HOHENFELS, Germany – The U.S. Army Lodging Operation of the Year Award recognizes outstanding performance and dedication in Army lodging operations, and U.S. Army Garrison Bavaria’s Army Lodging in Hohenfels recently received the award in the small category (1-60 rooms).

    The Hohenfels lodging facilities were established 1951 and have since been integral to supporting training activities and operations.

    “We are getting recognized for something that the team here has put a lot of hard work into over the last year, and I’m just really proud of what they’ve done,” said hotel manager Clifford Martin. “We focused a lot on customer service over the last couple of years, and I think we’ve been able to provide that to the guests, the Soldiers and our scores and our staff and everything reflects that at this point.”

    Winning organizations exhibit outstanding leadership by prioritizing customer service, fostering strong employee relations, ensuring effective financial management, and optimizing back-of-house systems critical to maintaining seamless operations.

    “Winning this award brings a lot of pride to me,” Martin said. “I’ve had the opportunity to really work with a great team. And in doing so, we’ve been able to offer a great facility to the guests for PCS and TDY into the Hohenfels area. So I am just really grateful and honored to have the team that we have here to be able to provide this service to the Soldiers.”

    The Army lodging team in Hohenfels consists of 18 staff members, and together they take care of 40 guest rooms spread across six buildings.

    “With everybody who is coming here, we are the first people that they come see, and we provide them with a place to stay and get them acclimatized to the area,” said assistant manager Marshall Smith. “And then we also support everybody going into the training area as they come and stay with us. So they have a place to come back to every night.”

    Army lodging guests range from Department of Defense travelers on official business, military members and their Families traveling on permanent change of station orders, retirees and military Families

    “This is a testament; it’s impressive to win this,” said USAG Bavaria commander Col. Stephen C. Flanagan, when he took part in the award presentation. “There are so many Army lodges all around the world, and you are one of the best. And it’s really important right now to take care of our warfighters and everyone that supports them coming through.”

    The Hohenfels Army Lodging is dedicated to provide quality lodging and hospitality services to their patrons to support the garrison’s mission and the community.

    “And I know you’re also working with older facilities, and we are working on that,” Flanagan said. ”What shines through is the customer service and the teamwork and that leaves everyone with a better experience. And you clearly go above and beyond to earn this award.”

    Some of the buildings are from 1949; A new Army Lodging facility is planned for 2028. The new six-floor facility will offer 82 apartments.

    Flanagan also presented the garrison coin to the lodging staff as part of the presentation.

    FORT POLK, La. – More than 4,000 Soldiers from the Iowa Army National Guard trained throughout June at Fort Polk, undergoing one of the Army’s most demanding combat training events in preparation for an upcoming overseas deployment.

    Known since the Vietnam War era as “Tigerland,” Fort Polk and the Joint Readiness Training Center have become synonymous with forging combat-ready Soldiers through intense, realistic training. For Iowa’s 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division, this rotation marks a pivotal moment: their first full brigade deployment since 2010.

    At the Joint Readiness Training Center, or JRTC, Soldiers are evaluated under pressure. Their minds are stressed, their physical limits are tested and their endurance is pushed to the edge. From junior enlisted Soldiers to senior Iowa Army National Guard leaders, all participants endure mental, physical and emotional exhaustion.

    The JRTC is one of four Army combat training centers. The others are the Joint Multinational Readiness Cente in Hohenfels, Germany; the Joint Pacific Multinational Readiness Center at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii; and the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California.

    The JRTC, however, is known for being the most grueling. The simulated combat environment, complete with force-on-force scenarios and constant stressors, provides Soldiers with some of the most realistic training they will encounter in their careers.

    “There are a lot of methods that we use to test Soldiers while they’re in the training area. One is simply the stress and pressure of combat,” said Brig. Gen. Derek Adams, the senior trainer for rotation 25-08. “We try to simulate that as best we can.”

    As the senior trainer, Adams works closely with observer-coach/trainers and the JRTC leadership to design, execute and evaluate the training rotation. He coordinates with the operations group, which oversees the exercise, monitors unit performance across all warfighting functions and delivers objective feedback through after-action reviews to improve readiness at every level.

    “JRTC emphasizes DOD’s priorities of lethality, warfighting and readiness by training the entire brigade combat team, from the individual Soldiers to the brigade combat team level,” Adams said. “It’s a large, complex organization, and this training reflects that.”

    This type of training marks a broader shift in Army doctrine.

    The Army is transitioning from the counterinsurgency operations of the past two decades to large-scale combat operations, or LSCO. Large-scale combat operations prepare Soldiers for potential conflicts with near-peer adversaries by emphasizing large-scale maneuvers, complex logistics and sustained combat power.

    “LSCO changes sustainment operations sheerly in the magnitude of what occurs,” said Col. Tony Smithhart, commander of the 734th Regional Support Group. “You’re talking about large numbers of Soldiers, large numbers of equipment.”

Ryan Reed) VIEW ORIGINAL

    The Regional Support Group is structured to provide logistical support to up to 20,000 Soldiers in a deployed environment. As the Regional Support Command for the JRTC, the RSG was tasked with coordinating all sustainment efforts. This included feeding more than 5,800 Soldiers, managing medical treatment and staging and preparing more than 2,500 pieces of equipment for operation.

    Planning for the JRTC began more than a year before the first boots hit the ground.

    “I made my first trip to Fort Polk about 18 months ago to determine the actual area we’d operate in,” Smithhart said. “Since then, my team at the 734th Regional Support Group has returned about six times to coordinate with Fort Polk staff, validate our node concepts and rehearse operations to support reception, staging, onward integration and base camp management.”

    The JRTC has earned its reputation. The environment is humid and rainy, the terrain is unforgiving and the scenarios evolve constantly.

    All of these factors come together to form a stressful and taxing exercise, but one that will toughen Soldiers. Despite numerous aspects working against them, the Soldiers of the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division, proved they not only have the grit to complete their upcoming deployment successfully but also to complete any mission that is asked of them.

    “The scale of this operation is critical to the development of our Soldiers,” Smithhart said. “It’s been called a generational training opportunity, and I believe that’s accurate.”

    TORUŃ, Poland — Soldiers with the 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, Illinois Army National Guard, recently spent two weeks in Torún, Poland, training alongside members of the Polish Territorial Defence Force.

    Since 1993, the Illinois National Guard and Poland have been partners in the Department of Defense National Guard State Partnership Program — an initiative that pairs Guard elements with partner nations worldwide for joint military training and subject matter expert exchanges.

    The recent two-week training focused on sniper operations, combat medical care, the Javelin anti-tank weapon system and remote observer techniques.

    For the sniper teams, the goal was to strengthen leadership skills in employing and overseeing sniper sections as well as developing advanced sniper expertise.

Bruno Rios, a cavalry scout with C Troop, 2nd Battalion, 106th Cavalry Regiment, Illinois Army National Guard, confirms that the weapon of his Polish counterpart is clear of ammunition following the completion of a shooting drill at a range near Toruń, Poland, June 7, 2025.

    “Our goal as a training team is to ensure we are equipping the Polish snipers with the tools to employ themselves against drones and thermal environments,” said Sgt. 1st Class Hussein Mashal, an infantryman with Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 178th Infantry Regiment, Illinois Army National Guard. “By merging our techniques with theirs and the lessons learned from the Ukrainian war, we hope to strengthen their sniper employment capabilities and survivability.”

    In the medical realm, Soldiers with the Illinois Army Guard’s C Company, 634th Brigade Support Battalion, shared casualty care treatment procedures — from the point of injury to the final point of care.

    This iteration included complex training scenarios that allowed participants to triage and evaluate casualties in a realistic, stressful simulated combat environment.

    “It’s always worth it working with the National Guard,” said Polish TDF 2nd Lt. Jakub Piotrowski, a medical team member and instructor. “We do the same things in different ways so it’s worthwhile to see how a different army is doing the same thing and then be able to cooperate with it.”

    Javelin instructors echoed that sentiment.

    “The Polish soldiers were extremely motivated and eager to learn,” said U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Nicholas Broden, a training noncommissioned officer with C Company, 1st Bn., 178th Inf. Regt. “They were always asking questions and were very hands on with the equipment.”

    Previous training exchanges meant many of the Polish soldiers already had foundational knowledge of the Javelin systems. That allowed the training to advance quickly to more strategic and tactical discussions, said Broden.

    For the forward observer teams — or remote observers — the focus was on establishing the fundamental skills for indirect fire coordination, a capability the TDF is actively strengthening as they expand artillery capabilities.

    “We started off pretty basic with basic call for fire and then basic joint fires observer skills,” said U.S. Army Master Sgt. William Aitken, an operations NCO with the 33rd IBCT. “It’s kind of an abbreviated forward observer program for the TDF.”

    The training also included high tech capabilities — such as employing small drones – combined with improvised concealment techniques to help Polish soldiers observe from a distance while staying hidden. The team practiced setting up hasty observation posts, coordinating drone feeds with command elements, and minimizing visual and electronic signatures — skills directly influenced by lessons learned from the war in Ukraine.

    Overall, the training helped strengthen and continue the 30-plus year partnership.

    “Our partnership with Poland, which began in 1993 and included 19 years of co-deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq, is the gold standard of deployments,” said U.S. Army Brig. Gen. Lenny Williams, the Illinois National Guard’s assistant adjutant general for Army. “We learn, we teach and we develop new tactics and techniques together with each critical knowledge exchange event. Our capabilities have improved, we’ve expanded our capacity and our partnership has grown even stronger the past two weeks.”

    VICENZA, Italy – The military communities of U.S. Army Garrison Italy, including Vicenza and Camp Darby, are mourning the loss of Gene Willie Strahan Jr., a devoted automotive mechanic, beloved colleague and cherished friend.

    Strahan knew cars—especially BMWs, his favorite. Friends described him as a gentle giant who loved car shows, fishing and spending time with his tiny dog, Thor.

    A U.S. Army veteran, Strahan served in Germany in the 1980s. As a civilian, he began working in Mannheim, Germany. He later moved to Camp Darby, where he worked as a contractor and later at the post exchange. Many remember him from his time at Camp Darby’s Auto Skills Center. Following downsizing there, Strahan relocated to Vicenza, where he worked at the Auto Skills Center, part of the Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation.

    Strahan’s love of cars translated to a sincere dedication to community members who sought his help. He offered mechanical expertise to soldiers and civilians at Caserma Ederle with humility and genuine warmth. A few minutes in the shop with Strahan often felt more like catching up with an old friend than speaking with a mechanic.

    Over the years, Strahan earned several awards for his work. But his joy came from engaging with the community and making connections that lasted.

    News of his June 10 passing sparked an outpouring of online condolences from Americans and Italians in Vicenza and Camp Darby, as well as friends around the world who remembered his kindness during their time in Italy.

    Jimmy Roddy, DFMWR’s Business Recreation Division chief, first met Strahan 24 years ago at Camp Darby. There, Strahan helped organize the summer car show and became known for offering help to anyone with automotive issues.

    “A big guy, big smile with a bigger heart—always helpful,” Roddy said. “He was very low-key, for as big as he was. He was a gentle giant.”

    Strahan loved to fish as much as he loved cars. Mostly, he loved helping the community solve their auto repair problems. (Photo Credit: U.S. Army) VIEW ORIGINAL

    Nicknamed “The Frenchman” by fishing buddies, Strahan was born on Dec. 7, 1963 in France into a military family. He grew up around Army bases, to include time in Germany.

    Timothy Gordon, a friend from the Camp Darby days, recalled spending long hours fishing Italian rivers with him—a tradition that continued after both relocated to Vicenza. Another shared passion was cars.

    “If you asked him about a BMW, he could tell you about it from top to bottom,” Gordon said.

    In Vicenza, Strahan was often seen with Thor, a canine companion that went with him nearly everywhere.

    “The smallest dog you could imagine with the biggest man you could ever imagine,” Gordon said. “People would just watch them walk down the road. He just loved small dogs.”

    Strahan also befriended Soldiers, including Spc. Haron Palomo, a volunteer at the Auto Skills Center. Over the past two years, they joked, shared stories and discussed car repairs while Palomo restored a 1993 Honda Civic. As he did with other customers, Strahan offered tips on finding affordable parts.

    “Sadly, he didn’t get to see it finished,” Palomo said.

    Strahan is survived by his mother, daughter, sister and brothers, including Michael Strahan, a television host and former professional football player.

    A memorial service will be held at noon on June 25 at Caserma Ederle’s Chapel. A second service is scheduled for noon on June 26 at Camp Darby’s chapel.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Changes for prescribing ADHD medications

    Source: New Zealand Government

    Minister for Mental Health Matt Doocey has welcomed prescribing changes that will enable GPs and nurse practitioners to diagnose and treat adults with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

    “I applaud Pharmac and Medsafe’s decision to widen prescribing rules for ADHD medicines from next February, this decision will give New Zealanders faster access to assessments and treatment,” Mr Doocey says.

    “This is a common-sense change that will make a meaningful difference in many lives of New Zealanders. I have heard stories of many people with ADHD who have been unable to get a diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner because of long wait items and costs associated with seeing a specialist.”

    Currently, GPs and nurse practitioners can only prescribe ADHD medicines to patients with a written recommendation from a paediatrician or psychiatrist, or after someone has already been diagnosed and had their first prescription.

    “This is a great step forward for timely access to support and for system efficiency. A number of our GPs and nurse practitioners are already working closely with psychiatrists to treat ADHD, so they already have the skills to manage this work,” Mr Doocey says.

    “It is still crucial that we balance risks. The Ministry of Health is working with sector representatives to develop a clinical principles framework for the assessment and treatment of ADHD. This will ensure there is quality and consistency for supporting patients with ADHD in New Zealand.

    “I want to acknowledge the many advocates with lived experience and others who have spent years advocating for this change. This decision is based on the recommendations received from both healthcare practitioners and patients.

    “We have heard your feedback loud and clear, and we know the positive impact this decision will have on many people’s ability to access what is often life-changing medicines.”

    This change is only one in a suite of measures to increase access to ADHD medicines. Last year, Pharmac also removed the requirement for funded access to stimulant medicines to be renewed every two years and is funding a new ADHD medicine, lisdexamfetamine.

    Note to editors:

    • Health agencies will be working closely with health sector groups over the next few months to support these changes. Not all GPs and nurse practitioners will be equipped to carry out this work immediately after the regulatory changes come into effect.
    • For younger people under 18, this change will allow nurse practitioners working within a multidisciplinary setting as part of paediatric or child and adolescent mental health services to diagnose and start treatment for ADHD.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: GPs and nurse practitioners able to start ADHD treatment from next year

    Source: PHARMAC

    From February 2026, general practitioners (GPs) and nurse practitioners will be able to start medical treatment for adults with ADHD, following decisions by Medsafe and Pharmac.

    This is a change to the current system, under which GPs and nurse practitioners can only prescribe ADHD stimulant medicines to patients on a written recommendation from a paediatrician or psychiatrist, or after someone has already been diagnosed with ADHD and given a first prescription. 

    Pharmac’s Acting Director Advice and Assessment, Catherine Epps says the new rules, which come into effect in February 2026, will mean that over time, more GPs and nurse practitioners will be able to diagnose and start adults on treatment for ADHD. For children and adolescents, who currently require input from a paediatrician or psychiatrist to initiate medical treatment for ADHD, the changes will allow nurse practitioners, working within child health or mental health services, to diagnose and start treatment for ADHD.

    “The decision, which is based on feedback from psychiatrists, paediatricians, GPs, nurse practitioners and patients, is one of many changes we are making to increase access to ADHD medicines. It follows our decision last year to remove the two-yearly renewal criteria for these medicines, making it easier to access ongoing treatment,” says Epps.

    Medsafe Group Manager Chris James says the change draws on the skills of GPs and nurse practitioners to improve access to ADHD treatment for the public.

    “We have a workforce of highly experienced general practitioners and nurse practitioners, a number of whom are already working closely with specialists to treat patients with ADHD. Implementing this change will mean they can do this work more quickly and efficiently without needing to wait for approval from a specialist.

    “It’s important we ensure a high quality of ADHD assessment, and that people can expect to receive appropriate care and support. We have been working closely with sector representatives to develop a clinical framework which will set out principles for diagnosing and treating ADHD, including the appropriate clinical care required of healthcare practitioners,” says Chris James.

    Earlier this year, Medsafe and Pharmac asked for feedback on the proposal to change the regulatory and funding restrictions for stimulant treatments for ADHD. More than 940 people and organisations responded to the consultation.

    Overall, most of the feedback was supportive. People explained how this decision will improve access to diagnosis and treatment for people with ADHD.

    Some were concerned about the supply issues affecting methylphenidate, and the impact this decision would have on it.

    To respond to these concerns, health agencies have delayed the implementation date of the decision. It will now come into effect in February 2026, rather than July 2025.

    This will also allow more time for more GP and nurse practitioners to develop further clinical expertise to begin assessing adults for ADHD and initiating their treatment.

    Dexamfetamine, lisdexamfetamine, and methylphenidate are medicines used in the treatment of ADHD. They are classified as Class B controlled drugs by the Misuse of Drugs Act 1975. 

    Approval from the Minister of Health is needed for doctors and nurse practitioners to prescribe these medicines. The approval process is the responsibility of the Ministry of Health and is done by Medsafe.

    Currently, to be diagnosed with ADHD, a person needs to see a psychiatrist or a paediatrician. To start on ADHD medicines, they need to be prescribed by a psychiatrist or a paediatrician, or by a doctor or nurse practitioner with a written recommendation.  

    The Ministry of Health is changing the approval notices for these medicines, so that more general and nurse practitioners are able to prescribe them. 

    We expect that more doctors and nurse practitioners will be able to assess and diagnose people with ADHD over time.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Tuberville Joins Legislation to Make Blocking Public Roads a Federal Crime

    WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) joined U.S. Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Ted Budd (R-NC), and Bill Cassidy (R-LA) in introducing the Safe and Open Streets Act in response to recent anti-ICE riots in Los Angles. The senators’ legislation would make it a federal crime to purposely obstruct, delay, or impact commerce by blocking a public road or highway, and would penalize lawbreakers through fines or up to five years in prison. Senator Tuberville called for the arrest of California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for their failure to punish the domestic terrorists in Los Angeles who were obstructing roads, putting American citizens in danger and compromising the free flow of commerce. 

    “For nearly a week, we watched as domestic terrorists assaulted ICE and law enforcement officers, set fire to cop cars, and blocked streets in Los Angeles and in other blue cities across the country—all while Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass sat on their tails and did nothing,” said Senator Tuberville. “The First Amendment gives us the right to freedom of assembly, but it doesn’t give the right to block our streets and put American lives at risk. I’m proud to join the Safe and Open Streets Act that restores law and order by holding radical protestors accountable.”

  • MIL-OSI USA: Duckworth Announces Opposition to Bryan Bedford’s Nomination to be FAA Administrator

    June 23, 2025

    The Senator raises substantial concerns regarding Bedford’s refusal to commit to protecting 1,500-hour pilot training standards that help keep the flying public safe

    [WASHINGTON, D.C.] – Today, U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)—a member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation (CST) and Ranking Member of the CST Aviation Subcommittee—issued the following statement announcing her strong opposition to Bryan Bedford’s nomination to serve as Federal Aviation Administrator. Her announcement comes after Bedford refused to commit to upholding the 1,500-hour certification standard for our nation’s pilots after Duckworth pressed him on the issue.

    “It is deeply disturbing that at this critical moment in aviation safety Mr. Bedford refuses to commit to upholding the 1,500-hour pilot training requirement. Amid a surge in near-misses, an air traffic controller shortage, aging air traffic control equipment and facilities, and in the wake of the first major deadly commercial crash in more than a decade, now is not the time to weaken flight hour requirements for all aspiring airline pilots. Incident after incident, it has been pilots who have made last second decisions to avert disaster. Well-trained pilots are our last line of defense, and I cannot support a nominee who as a corporate executive prioritized—and gained notoriety for—his failed effort to convince the FAA to exempt him from the 1,500-hour rule and let him hire less experienced pilots. I will be voting no on Mr. Bedford’s nomination.”

    In light of Bedford’s previous comments and actions against the 1,500-hour rule, Duckworth underscored at his nomination hearing that he would unilaterally attempt to weaken this standard and produce less-prepared pilots despite the serious challenges our nation is facing with regard to aviation safety. When Duckworth asked Mr. Bedford for his commitment to not reduce the 1,500-hour rule if confirmed, Mr. Bedford refused to commit. Duckworth’s remarks can be found on the Senator’s YouTube.

    In 2022, while Bedford was CEO of Republic Airways, the airline asked the FAA for an exemption to the 1,500 hour requirement for graduates from the airline’s training academy. The airline argued its graduates needed only 750 hours of flight time to become first officers, but FAA rejected the application, finding it did not provide an equivalent level of safety.

    Last week, the families of the Colgan Air Flight 3407 crash announced their opposition to Bedford’s nomination.

    For years before the deadly DCA crash, Duckworth has been sounding the alarm that we must make critical aviation safety investments to prevent all-too-often near-misses from becoming catastrophic tragedies. Last Congress, Duckworth chaired two CST Aviation Subcommittee hearings—one last December and the other a year prior—to address our aviation industry’s chilling surge in near-deadly close calls and underscore the urgent need to improve air traffic control systems to protect the flying public.

    Duckworth helped author the landmark bipartisan FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 that was signed into law last year and included several of her provisions to safeguard the 1,500-hour rule, improve safety, expand the aviation workforce and enhance protections for travelers with disabilities.

    Safe and Open Streets Act is a Direct Response to Radical Tactics Used by Anti-ICE Riots in L.A.

    Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Ted Budd (R-N.C.) joined Senators Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), and Bill Cassidy (R-La.) in introducing the Safe and Open Streets Act. The bill would make it a federal crime to purposely obstruct, delay, or affect commerce by blocking a public road or highway.

    “Protestors who willfully block traffic pose a serious threat to public safety by impacting the flow of emergency vehicles and personnel. They can also significantly inconvenience Americans trying to get to and from work, school, or important personal business. The First Amendment protects the right to assemble and protest peacefully, but it does not permit such behavior. I’m proud to join Sen. Tillis and our colleagues in ensuring America’s streets are kept clear for everyone,” said Senator Budd.

    “The emerging tactic of radical protestors blocking roads and stopping commerce is not only obnoxious to innocent commuters, but it’s also dangerous and will eventually get people killed. It needs to be a crime throughout the country. I’m proud to introduce the Safe and Open Streets Act so that radical activists who resort to these reckless and dangerous tactics are held accountable under the full weight of the law for endangering public safety,” said Senator Tillis.

    Read the full bill text HERE.

    Background

    The Safe and Open Streets Act is in direct response to radical tactics of anti-ICE protestors who have intentionally blocked roads and highways across the country, including in Los Angeles, stranding drivers and compromising the free flow of commerce. The bill would penalize lawbreakers through fines or up to five years of imprisonment.

    Twelve exceptional UK-based SMEs have been named today as winners of the Department for Business and Trade’s 2025 Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards.

    • Twelve SMEs announced as winners of the 2025 Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards 
    • Now in their third year, the awards celebrate outstanding small businesses achieving exporting success 
    • Winning entries highlight the UK’s strength in sustainability and AI innovation 

    From ethical metal recycling to AI-driven edtech and digital identity, twelve exceptional UK-based SMEs have been named today as winners of the Department for Business and Trade’s (DBT) 2025 Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards. 

    Now in their third year, the awards celebrate the international growth of the UK’s most dynamic small businesses. While the awards naturally reflect the sectoral diversity of British innovation, this year’s winners signal a global appetite for UK leadership in two high-growth areas: sustainability and artificial intelligence. From Osbit’s offshore wind infrastructure to Twin Science’s gamified climate action kits and ubloquity’s AI-enhanced trade platform, British SMEs are exporting solutions to tackle some of the world’s most urgent challenges. 

    Gareth Thomas, Minister for Services, Small Businesses and Exports, said: 

    The innovation and entrepreneurship shown by the businesses entering the Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards demonstrate the best of British business. 

    When small businesses export, the whole economy benefits. By celebrating the outstanding international trade achievements of UK SMEs, we hope to encourage more businesses to get on the exporting ladder and take the best of Britain to markets around the world.   

    This year’s winners were chosen from hundreds of entries across 12 sector-focused categories, including two new areas—Digital & Technology and Export Services—introduced to reflect evolving global opportunities. Each category includes one winner and up to three highly commended businesses. 

    In the Digital & Technology category, Porotech stood out for its AR and AI-powered wearables, with 90% of revenue from exports and partnerships with Amazon, Microsoft and Foxconn. Twin Science & Robotics, winner in Education & EdTech, exports to over 40 countries and has seen 70% annual revenue growth through its STEM kits focused on AI, robotics and climate literacy. 

    Sustainability also remains a major theme across the winners. Osbit, winner in Low Carbon Energy, delivers mission-critical offshore wind technology, with 65% of revenue from exports. Meanwhile, Avon Specialty Metals, recognised in Advanced Manufacturing & Construction, recycles high-performance metals and alloys and has grown international sales by 192% over three years. 

    Winners like Gerald McDonald & Company (Agriculture, Food & Drink) and LIMB-art (Healthcare) underscore the global demand for British-made, high-quality products. From innovative prosthetics to premium fruit derivatives, these SMEs prove that exporting drives resilience, expansion and innovation. 

    This year’s winners will receive a bespoke promotional package, including a one-year membership to the Chartered Institute of Export & International Trade, a working capital masterclass with Lloyds Bank, an invitation to the winners’ reception in London, professional photography of their business, bespoke promotion on DBT channels and a digital badge, certificate and trophy to commemorate their achievements. 

    By creating jobs, driving innovation and exporting world-class British products and services, these businesses are making a vital contribution to the Government’s mission to go further and faster for economic growth as part of its Plan for Change.  

    A key part of this mission is supporting SMEs to grow, scale and enter global markets—recognising that when more businesses trade internationally, the entire UK economy benefits. Exporting supports a fifth of UK employment1, paying on average 7% higher wages2 and delivering 21% higher productivity for goods exporters3. 

    To help achieve its mission, the Government recently revamped the Board of Trade to boost SME exports and will soon launch its Trade Strategy. This will set out its approach to maximising export opportunities, including those arising from recently signed agreements with India, the US and the EU.

    WISeKey’s Subsidiaries WISeSat and SEALSQ Launch New Satellite with SpaceX, Enabling the First-Ever DePIN from Space and Advancing Quantum-Safe Space Communications

    SEALSQ and WISeSat are setting the foundation for a new generation of cyber-resilient, quantum-ready space systems, redefining global digital trust from orbit

    Geneva, Switzerland, June 23, 2025 –WISeKey International Holding Ltd (“WISeKey”) (SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), a leading global cybersecurity, blockchain, and IoT company, today announces that its subsidiary WISeSat.Space SA (“WISeSat”), has successfully launched its latest generation satellite WISeSat 3 aboard SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Transporter-14 mission, June 23 at 23:18 CEST from Vanderberg, California. This mission represents a breakthrough in space-based cybersecurity and decentralized infrastructure, marking the first satellite to embed Quantum RootKey from SEALSQ’s Corp. (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ”), another subsidiary of WISeKey.

    The new satellite includes cutting-edge technology enabling SEALCOIN token exchanges directly from space, in collaboration with Hedera. Of note, SEALCOIN AG, also a subsidiary of WISeKey, focuses on decentralized physical internet with DePIN technology and house the development of the SEALCOIN platform. This innovation establishes the world’s first Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) launched from orbit, transforming the role of satellites in decentralized finance and secure digital identity.

    Simultaneously, the mission is a pivotal step forward in securing space communications through the implementation of post-quantum cryptography (PQC). PQC is critical for protecting satellite communications against future threats posed by quantum computers, which are expected to render current encryption methods like RSA obsolete. Ensuring data integrity and confidentiality is essential in the space environment, and PQC delivers quantum-resistant algorithms that can be integrated into existing systems, allowing for a seamless transition and protection from both current and emerging risks.

    This satellite architecture supports the integration of PQC within a hybrid framework that enables secure communication between orbital and ground-based infrastructure. By embedding PQC algorithms directly into satellite hardware, the cryptographic processing is isolated from critical systems, thus enhancing security and minimizing vulnerabilities. This approach also allows for secure key generation, distribution, and management, essential functions for trusted data exchange between satellites and Earth stations.

    The cryptographic algorithms being tested onboard follow the latest standards under development by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), ensuring that the technology is aligned with global efforts to future-proof digital infrastructure. With this mission, WISeSat and SEALSQ are demonstrating how PQC can not only be deployed in terrestrial networks, but also extended into orbit, safeguarding critical communications for years to come.

    Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeKey, commented: “This launch is not only a milestone for decentralized infrastructure in space, but also a strategic move toward making space communications quantum-resilient. By embedding PQC and enabling blockchain-based tokenization from orbit, we are reshaping the way cybersecurity, finance, and space technology converge.”

    Representing WISeSat at the launch was David Fergusson, Board Director of WISeKey, and Executive Managing Director, M&A at Generational Equity. Joining Mr. Fergusson, as a guest of WISeKey was Jon Templeman, CEO of Savior Products and a pioneer in battery technology. Mr. Templeman’s latest innovation is an industry-disruptive ‘shock and vibration management system’ for application to all vehicles–from automobiles to rockets, increasing life-span and reducing material costs.

    Mr. Fergusson commented, “WISeSat’s groundbreaking innovation, pioneering the advancement of post-quantum cryptography, continues to set precedent for the future of trusted communication and data transmission. And it’s an honor to be joined at this historic launch by Jon Templeman, a pioneer in his own right, whose advancements in battery technology will be transformative for companies like WISeSat.”

    The latest satellite launch forms part of a growing WISeSat constellation that delivers sovereign, secure, and scalable satellite services for IoT, digital identity, and trusted data transmission. The launch strengthens Europe’s capabilities in space and cybersecurity, promoting technological independence and leadership in the age of quantum computing.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Baldwin Joins Bipartisan Group Urging Trump Admin to Reverse Closure of Job Corps Centers

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) joined a bipartisan group of Appropriations Committee members led by Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Jack Reed (D-RI) in sending a letter to Department of Labor (DOL) Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, urging the DOL to reverse its decision to close Job Corps Centers nationwide.

    “The sudden announcement that the Department of Labor began the process of closing all Job Corps Centers on May 29, 2025, will harm students and local economies in every state across the nation,” the Senators wrote. “We urge you to retract this announcement and to faithfully implement the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Full-Year Continuing Resolution Act, which President Trump signed into law and which includes $1,760,155,000 for Job Corps.”

    “Job Corps has helped millions of young people, ages 16 to 24, many of whom face significant economic and social challenges, develop the skills and resilience they need to succeed in work and in life through intensive education, training, and support services in a residential setting since its creation in 1964,” they continued. “The sudden closure of Job Corps Centers not only puts young people’s lives at risk, but local communities will pay a steep price, especially the thousands of individuals who work at the Centers and will lose their livelihoods.”

    “Abruptly canceling contracts for the nation’s Job Corps Centers will leave students and communities in the lurch and will undermine opportunities for young people to get education and training to succeed in valuable trades. While we would be pleased to work with you to improve the Job Corps program to do even more to serve our young people and address growing workforce needs, it is essential that you faithfully implement the program in accordance with the FY 2025 Continuing Resolution and reopen all Job Corps Centers,” the Senators concluded.

    The letter was also signed by Senators Patty Murray (D-WA), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), John Boozman (R-AR), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), and Jeff Merkley (D-OR).

    Senator Baldwin has been strongly opposed to President Trump’s moves to close down Job Corps sites, including the one in Milwaukee. During President Trump’s first term, Senator Baldwin blocked the administration from trying to close a Job Corps center near Laona that provides economic opportunities in rural Wisconsin. At a hearing for President Trump’s Fiscal Year 2026 budget proposal in May, Senator Baldwin pressed DOL Secretary Lori Chavez-Deremer on proposed cuts to workforce training programs, including the Job Corps program. After the Trump Administration announced a new round of cuts in May, Senator Baldwin demanded they reverse course on the decision to shutter Job Corps training sites across the country.

    A full version of this letter is available here and below.

    Dear Secretary Chavez-DeRemer:

    The sudden announcement that the Department of Labor began the process of closing all Job Corps Centers on May 29, 2025, will harm students and local economies in every state across the nation. We urge you to retract this announcement and to faithfully implement the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Full-Year Continuing Resolution Act, which President Trump signed into law and which includes $1,760,155,000 for Job Corps. That includes funding to enroll students in Job Corps Centers for the new program year that starts July 1, 2025. We expect the Department to prevent any interruptions or delays in serving students or program options by making the necessary changes or extensions to contracts and quickly restarting background checks.

    Job Corps has served millions of young people, ages 16 to 24, many of whom face significant economic and social challenges, develop the skills and resilience they need to succeed in work and in life through intensive education, training, and support services in a residential setting since its creation in 1964. Today, many jobs require training beyond a high school diploma but not a college degree, including those of strategic national importance, such as electricians needed to build data centers to power artificial intelligence, machinists, pipefitters, and welders to manufacture the next generation of submarines and destroyers, wildland firefighters to keep our communities safe, and nurses to help care for our families. Job Corps is one of the few national programs that fills the gap by recruiting young people who are out of the labor force and providing them with the career and technical education to address these critical workforce needs.

    Job Corps Centers contribute to their local communities and economies. They have developed partnerships with employers, local workforce development boards, local government agencies, and community-based organizations. The sudden closure of Job Corps Centers not only puts young people’s lives at risk, but local communities will pay a steep price, especially the thousands of individuals who work at the Centers and will lose their livelihoods.

    Abruptly canceling contracts for the nation’s Job Corps centers will leave students and communities in the lurch and will undermine opportunities for young people to get education and training to succeed in valuable trades. While we would be pleased to work with you to improve the Job Corps program to do even more to serve our young people and address growing workforce needs, it is essential that you faithfully implement the program in accordance with the FY 2025 Continuing Resolution and reopen all Job Corps Centers. Thank you for your attention to this request, and we request your prompt reply no later than June 24, 2025.

    Sincerely,

  • MIL-OSI United Nations: Secretary-General’s remarks to the UN Charter Day Exhibition [as delivered]

    Source: United Nations secretary general

    Mr. President of the General Assembly, Excellencies, Ladies and gentlemen,

    We are so honoured to welcome home the original UN Charter.

    It is more than parchment and ink; it is a promise — of peace, dignity and cooperation among nations.

    And as we open this exhibition that celebrates our earliest days, we are reminded that the Charter was only the beginning.

    The ideals it enshrined had to be put into action — by people, by process, and sometimes, by something as simple as a wooden box.

    In the spring of 1946, at Hunter College here in New York City, the first UN ballot box for the Security Council was opened for a routine inspection before the first vote.

    To everyone’s surprise, there was already a slip of paper inside.

    It was a message from the box’s maker — a mechanic named Paul Antonio.   Apparently, there have been some Antonios around.

    He wrote:

    “May I, who have had the privilege of fabricating this ballot box, cast the first vote?

    May God be with every member of the United Nations organization and through your noble efforts bring lasting peace to us all – all over the world.”

    That message — humble, hopeful, and heartfelt — captures the spirit of the United Nations at its founding.

    And it reminds us why we are here today.

    Eighty years is a blink of an eye in history.

    And yet, until the United Nations, humanity never had a single place where every government and all peoples could unite to fix the world and build something better.

    The UN is a living miracle — and the women and men of the United Nations bring this miracle to life every day and everywhere:

    Forging peace.

    Tackling poverty, hunger, and disease.

    Advancing human rights.

    Delivering lifesaving aid.

    And striving to make our organization stronger.

    Today, our world faces age-old challenges — and newer threats like the climate crisis and runaway technology, not to mention the horrible conflicts we are witnessing.

    But we have the tools and the norms of international law to guide us, starting with the United Nations Charter.

    And as we reflect on the artifacts of our founding — the documents, the symbols, the memories — I keep thinking about that note in the ballot box.

    Paul Antonio never sat in a General Assembly seat.

    He never gave a speech or signed a treaty.

    But he believed in what this Organization could become.

    He believed in us.

    Eighty years later, I hope we can all carry that same spirit — of quiet conviction, of hope, and of belief in peace — into the future we are building together.

    And I thank you.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Congresswoman Torres Calls for Federal and State Labor Agencies to Protect Inland Empire Warehouse Workers from Dangerous Indoor Heat

    June 23, 2025

    Urges Inspections and Finalization of Federal Strong Heat Protection Standards Amid Rising Temperatures

    Washington, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Norma Torres sent a letter to Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer of the U.S. Department of Labor and Secretary Stewart Knox of the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency, urging immediate and comprehensive measures to safeguard warehouse workers in the Inland Empire from dangerous heat conditions as summer temperatures soar.

    The Inland Empire serves as a critical logistics hub—handling nearly 40 percent of America’s imported goods—supporting approximately 200,000 transportation and warehousing jobs. Recent years have seen record-breaking heat waves with outdoor temperatures exceeding 110°F and indoor warehouse temperatures reaching 89°F, posing significant health risks to workers. This year, the Inland Empire experienced temperatures of nearly 100°F before Memorial Day, and last week, the region was under a heat advisory.

    “Inland Empire warehouse workers are the backbone of our supply chain and economy,” said Congresswoman Torres. “They deserve protection from extreme heat with access to water, fans, and adequate training to prevent heat-related illnesses. Frequent and thorough inspections are critical to ensuring that important heat-related workplace requirements are adhered to and workers’ rights are protected.”

    For the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency, its Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) on July 24, 2024, finalized California’s Indoor Heat Illness Prevention regulation, which mandates safety measures when indoor temperatures reach 82°F. Rep. Torres applauded this action but called for ongoing reminders to employers and increased inspection frequency during heat waves.

    For the U.S. Department of Labor, Rep. Torres urges their Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to promptly finalize its proposed rule on “Heat Injury and Illness Prevention in Outdoor and Indoor Work Settings,” published last year in August, to establish strong, enforceable protections for workers nationwide.

    The letter requests details from both agencies outlining their comprehensive plans for inspections, including training, information and equipment provided to workers during the summer, along with a post-summer report or briefing on:

    • Lessons learned from inspection efforts and their effectiveness.

    • The working conditions and job impacts on the hottest summer days.

    • Recommendations for employers and steps taken to address violations.

    “Protecting our workers from indoor heat hazards is not just a safety issue—it is a matter of fairness and respect for those who keep our economy moving,” added Congresswoman Torres. “As summers grow hotter, we must act decisively to prevent heat illnesses and fatalities in our warehouses.”
