    "On Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Md., Program Executive Officer Intelligence, Electronic Warfare & Sensors (PEO IEW&S) joined by members of other PEO’s: Command Control Communications – Tactical (PEO C3T) and Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives (PEO ACWA) along with Joint Program Executive Office Chemical and Biological Defense (JPEO Chem Bio) hosted Lt. Gen. Paul Ostrowski, the Principal Military Deputy to the Assistant Secretary of the Army, for his Acquisition Streamline & Culture Initiatives brief, Dec. 20, 2107.

    Ostrowkis’s whirlwind tour took him to Huntsville, Ala., for time with PEO Aviation and PEO Missiles and Space, then it was off to Warren, Mich., home of PEO Ground Combat Systems (PEO CGS) and PEO Combat Support & Combat Service Support (PEO CS&CSS.) The purpose of the tour was to meet with Army professionals in the acquisition field and discuss plans for the future. Ostrowski certainly had a plan.

    “We’ve been so brain washed in a way,” Ostrowski said to a well-attended auditorium. “To follow processes and that those processes were more important than product, which has put us in a position where we no longer than keep up with the threat and we no longer can keep up with the advances in technology with the speed at which they are turning.”

    In Special Operations fashion, Ostrowski directly offered to “fly high cover,” saying “I’ve got your back. Because it’s on me. Which is exactly where I want to be, because we have got to change this thing." (U.S. Army Photo/John Higgins)
