US Pacific senior leaders host Cross-Component Integration Forum

Senior leaders from U.S. Army Pacific and Pacific Air Forces hosted the next iteration of the Cross-Component Integration Forum to discuss strategies and best practices for fostering greater interoperability and integration among the U.S. Army and Air Force units in the Indo-Pacific. The forum provides an opportunity for theater component commands to identify gaps and seams in joint planning and maximize resources for future planning efforts. This collaboration is essential for cohesive joint operations, especially in implementing Agile Combat Employment (ACE) and Multi-Domain Operations (MDO). Both leaders spoke to the inherent strength of the Joint Force in how the components operate throughout the region every day and continued collaboration at forums like the CCIF illustrates how closely integrated the components are.
