Before leaving Singapore this past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend a BBQ with U.S. service members and their families stationed in Singapore, as well as crewmen from the USS Fitzgerald, docked in Singapore at the time. Joe and I also visited with service members, their families, and DOD employees in Hawaii, at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam. When Joe and I travel, we love nothing more than to meet with our men and women in uniform and their families to thank them for their service and sacrifice.

Military families face so many challenges, as spouses get deployed and families move around. When I was in Singapore, I met a woman who was in the Navy and she told me that this was her 14th move. As a military mom, I understand a bit of what these families are going through. Our son Beau was deployed for a year to Iraq as a member of the Delaware Army National Guard and our son Hunter is an Ensign in the Navy Reserves. This experience, as well as the joys and concerns we heard from military families as we traveled around the world led First Lady Michele Obama and I to start Joining Forces. It is our hope that we can rally all Americans to support our veterans and military families. Joining Forces brings together public and private resources to help with the employment, education, and wellness of our veterans, servicemen and women, and their families.

Obama’s Latest Blunder Is Treasonous In 178 Countries

Democrats Despise Taxpayers SC Obamas Latest Blunder is Treasonous in 178 Countries

In May, I shared with you the details about 172 House members visiting over 90 countries and every continent except Antarctica in 2012 – all on your dime. But members of the U.S. House of Representatives actually travel modestly compared to the VIP travel undertaken by Obama’s friends and appointees.

And of course, any travel review needs to start with the travel queen of the last four years, Hillary Clinton.

Hillary traveled at a record-setting pace, journeying 956,733 miles and setting foot in 112 countries. This adds up to 2,084 hours spent flying around the world, which is equivalent to 86 whole days spent aboard her government-issued luxury jetliner. And how do we know these facts? Because she likes to brag about them.

But when it comes to costs, your guess is as good as mine. Despite repeated Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, her department refuses to come clean about how much this travel cost U.S. taxpayers.

Ironically, Obama’s “most transparent administration in history” works hard to hide the details of the luxurious globe-trotting. But thanks to some hard work by lawyers using the Freedom of Information Act, some other portions of the travel details are beginning to surface.

And That’s Only the Beginning…

It’s only proper that Attorney General Eric Holder tells us how much his travels cost, since he’s the federal officer in charge of FOIA compliance. While he hasn’t been too diligent about asking others to comply, he did comply himself – to some degree.

From his disclosures, we learned that during 2011, Holder filed 62 long-distant jaunts that cost us, at a minimum, $1.45 million. However, he refused to disclose flight costs for seven major trips out, including travels to China, Hawaii, and Brussels.

Holder’s travelling includes an April 2011 sojourn to Las Vegas, mixing business and personal travel, which totaled $46,358. Other “personal” trips, including visits to Martha’s Vineyard and Miami, cost us taxpayers a whopping $169,502.

And of course there’s Joe Biden. Today, we learned that the vice-president’s six-day trip to South America and the Caribbean included one 20-hour stop in Trinidad and Tobago that cost an astounding $245,000. As has become standard, the contract was awarded without “full and open competition” because of security and logistical concerns.

Yet the scariest part is that, while the travel for administration officials sounds expensive to those of us who pay our own bills while flying coach or driving on our summer trips, these Obama appointees don’t even hold a candle to Michelle and Barack.

First, there was Michelle Obama’s 2012 President’s Day weekend ski vacation to Aspen, Colorado with her two daughters. The total cost for the Aspen ski vacation was at least $83,182.99. The bill for the U.S. Secret Service, including accommodations at the Fasching Haus deluxe condominiums and the Inn at Aspen, came to $48,950.38. The cost for the flight, per official DOD published hourly rates, was $22,583.70.  Food and miscellaneous on-flight items cost $235.44. The cost for rental cars totaled $6,442.23.

But that’s nothing. A drop in the bucket. More importantly, …read more

Congressman Challenges Colleagues To Press Obama On Benghazi

Leave a comment

By Congressman Steve Stockman (R-TX)

WASHINGTON – Congressman Steve Stockman (R-Texas 36) released the following open letter to Congress Tuesday afternoon, encouraging members to support Congressman Frank Wolf’s bill creating a Select Committee to investigate the Obama administration’s response to the Sept. 11, 2012 killings of Americans in Benghazi, Libya.

Dear Colleague:

As a fellow member of this body, I feel that we should protect and honor the sacrifice of those who sacrifice their lives to provide us with the freedoms that make our nation great.

In that same spirit, we should investigate and seek the truth about what happened on that tragic day in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012.

These four men served their nation with honor and character in the face of danger, and we likewise should honor their memory in seeking the truth about what actually took place that fateful day.

The purpose of this letter is to encourage colleagues of the House of Representatives to support Congressman Wolf’s H.Res. 36, which will create a House Select Committee on the Terrorist Attack in Benghazi.

It is essential that a full accounting of the events of September 11, 2012, be provided and that the American public be fully informed regarding this egregious terrorist attack on US diplomatic personnel and facilities.

We owe that truth to the American people and the families of the fallen.

It appears that many of the facts and details surrounding the terrorist attack which resulted in four American deaths and an undetermined number of American casualties have not yet been ascertained by previous hearings and inquiries.

Additional information is now slowly surfacing in the media, which makes a comprehensive bipartisan inquiry an imperative. Many questions have not been answered thus far.

The House Select Committee should address, at a minimum, the following questions:

1.      Why was there no military response to the events in Benghazi?

a.       Were military assets in the region available? If not, why not?

b.      If so, were they alerted?

c.       Were assets deployed to any location in preparation for a rescue or recovery attempt?

d.      Was military assistance requested by the Department of State? If so, what type?

e.       Were any US Army/Naval/USMC assets available to support the US diplomats in Benghazi during the attack?

f.        What, if any, recommendations for military action were made by DOD and the US Africa Command?

2.      What, if any, non-military assistance was provided during the attack?

3.      How many US personnel were injured in Benghazi?

4.      Why have the survivors of the attack not been questioned?

5.      Where are the survivors?

6.      Who was in the White House Situation Room (WHSR) during the entire 8-hour period of the attacks, and was a senior US military officer present?

7.      Where were Leon Panetta and General Martin Dempsey during the crisis, and what inputs and recommendations did they make?

8.      Where were Tom Donilon, the National Security Advisor, Denis McDonough, his deputy, Valerie Jarrett and John Brennan during the attacks, and what (if any) recommendations or decisions did any of them make?

9.      Why were F-16 fighter aircraft based in Aviano, Italy (less than two hours away) never considered a viable option for disruption (if not dispersal) of the attackers until “boots on the ground” (troop support–General Dempsey’s words) arrived?

10.  Were any

Mobile device security plan defended by Army

Leave a comment

The Department of Defense’s inspector general has reposted and updated a report critical of the Army’s shortcomings in handling cybersecurity for commercial mobile devices, with some changes to correct for what it says were mistakes.

However, the basic findings in the reposted report, “Improvements Needed With Tracking and Configuring Army Commercial Mobile Devices,” remain the same as the earlier version published March 26 but yanked off the Web a couple of days ago.

The inspector general, whose job is oversight of Army effectiveness and efficiency, found through analysis and direct inspections that there’s been a failure in the Army to track, properly configure or “sanitize” the 14,000 CMDs it has in use, mainly tablets and smartphones based on the Apple iOS, Google Android and Windows mobile operating systems.

Pentagon Shrinks Value of Booz Allen Contract by 85%

Leave a comment

By Rich Smith, The Motley Fool

Filed under:

On what appears to have been a slow day for defense contracting, the Department of Defense announced the award of only two contracts on Tuesday — and one of them was to a small, privately held company that won’t interest investors at all.

It wasn’t an entirely uneventful day, however.

The Pentagon gave a $22 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract to EMC . This contract calls upon EMC to provide “instrumentation support for instrumentation loading, integration, analysis and display (ILIAD), Enterprise Test Data Management System (ETDMS), Odyssey, and supplies to Air Force test customers.” The contract has an estimated completion date of April 2, 2017.

Meanwhile, the DOD had some disappointing news for Booz Allen Hamilton shareholders. You know how we reported last week that Booz Allen got the biggest of several contracts awarded back on March 29?About $59.4 million to provide “additional systems engineering and integration support for launch test and range system programs” for the U.S. Air Force? Well, as it turns out, most of that remains true. However, when the DOD said “$59.4 million,” what it really meant to say was “$8.9 million.” The Pentagon announced this minor correction today, and the value of Booz Allen‘s contract instantly shrank by 85%. Oops.

Pentagon Awards $150 Million to Northrop, Orbital, and NMSU

Leave a comment

By Rich Smith, The Motley Fool

Filed under:

On Monday, the Department of Defense awarded $150 million to a trio of vendors through a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract. The contract, awarded severally to the Physical Science Lab at New Mexico State University, Northrop Grumman , and Orbital Sciences , funds unspecified “theoretical studies and engineering research” work to be performed for U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force research and development programs.

Although not specifically stated in the DOD‘s contract announcement, the contract appears to be an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract, inasmuch as it specifies that “work … will be determined with each order.” This suggests the DOD‘s award is actually an umbrella contract under which specified task orders will be put up for bid, at which point NMSU, Northrop, and Orbital will be able to bid to fulfill said task orders.

One curiosity about the contract is that DOD says “four bids were solicited, with four bids received” for the contract. However, only three winners were named.

This contract runs through March 16, 2018.

Lockheed Snags $174.7 Million Worth of Pentagon Contracts

Leave a comment

By Rich Smith, The Motley Fool

Filed under:

On Friday, the Department of Defense awarded world-largest pure-play defense contractor Lockheed Martin four separate contracts worth a combined $173.7 million. Among these:

  • The biggest win went to Lockheed’s Space Systems division, which will receive $105.9 million to provide “logistics support, legacy sustainment, and combined task force support” for the Space Based Infrared Systems project — at least its fourth such award in the past three months. Work on this contract should be completed by Sept. 30, 2016.
  • Lockheed won a second, smaller award for $32.8 million to conduct “special studies, analyses, and reviews for the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) program.” Lockheed will be focusing on solving “engineering and production challenges” and evaluating “cost and schedule risks” arising from efforts to cut costs on the program, which is currently overbudget. This contract has a March 2014 complete date.
  • The company’s Mission Systems and Sensors division was awarded a sole source, cost-plus-award-fee contract modification worth $24 million, exercising an option to “support advanced concepts initiatives” for the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense Program Office. This contract runs through Dec. 31.
  • Finally, and mysteriously, Lockheed won an $11 million Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, award. An award for what is the question. DOD says only that “the statement of work for this effort is classified.”

Pentagon Awards $45.5 Million in Miscellaneous Defense Contracts

Leave a comment

By Rich Smith, The Motley Fool

Filed under:

On Friday, the Department of Defense announced a number of smallish (in defense industry terms) contracts awarded to several publicly traded companies.

  • The largest award went to gas and electric utility Integrys Energy , which won a fixed-price with economic-price-adjustment contract for the direct supply of a maximum of $14.9 million worth of “pipeline quality natural gas” to Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and federal civilian agency customers in the northeast region. This contract runs through March 31, 2015.
  • L-3 Communications was awarded a $12.4 million firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract to supply spare parts for AN/PVS-15, AN/PVS-18, and AN/PVS-31 model night vision goggles. This contract funds delivery of goggles as ordered through March 2018.
  • The Air Force awarded privately held Sierra Nevada Corp. a $10.1 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for work on operational systems for “the functional development model.” The contract notification contains no more details than this. It is unclear whether the contract has anything to do with the disputed Sierra Nevada/Embraer contract to supply the Air Force with Super Tucano fighter planes for use by the Afghan Air Force.
  • Last, smallest, and most mysterious, Science Applications International won an $8.1 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to perform work for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. What kind of work remains a mystery, however, because as the DOD contract specifies: “this effort is classified.”

Panetta: DOD backed arming Syrian opposition

Leave a comment

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta is saying for the first time that the Defense Department backed the idea of providing arms to opposition groups in Syria.

Until Thursday, the Pentagon had only said publicly that U.S. policy is to give only humanitarian assistance to rebels battling President Bashar Assad‘s regime. Providing arms has been the subject of internal administration debate.

The Obama administration has said it prefers a political, rather than military, solution in Syria.

The administration has expressed concern about the difficulty of determining which opposition groups are tied to al-Qaida-insurgents who might get U.S.-supplied arms. But some have urged U.S. to supply weapons to opposition groups in order to hasten Assad’s departure and prevent rebels from taking weapons from terror-linked groups.

Pentagon SC Former Special Forces Commander: DOD Could Have Flown Rescue Team From Tripoli to Benghazi; DOD: State Dept. Decided Whether and What to Fly

Retired Army Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin–formerly commander of U.S. Special Forces Command and deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence—told CNSNews.com that, if it had been asked, the Defense Department could have sent a plane to Libya on Sept. 11, 2012, to transport a rescue team of U.S. security personnel that instead ended up taking a chartered private plane from Tripoli to Benghazi that night.

“There is no question that we could have moved an airplane in there and we could have also put boots on the ground at the embassy,” Gen. Boykin told CNSNews.com.

“State should have coordinated with DOD and said: We’ve got to have an airplane,” said Gen. Boykin. “The Department of Defense could have provided an airplane in there. All they had to do was ask.”
