The subcommittee met at 2:06 p.m., in room SD-192, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Jon Tester, (chairman) presiding. Present: Senators Tester, Durbin, Leahy, Feinstein, Murray, Schatz, Baldwin, Shelby, Murkowski, Moran, Hoeven, and Booz- man. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY STATEMENT OF HON. JOHN P. ROTH, ACTING SECRETARY OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR JON TESTER Senator TESTER. I want to call the meeting to order. Ranking Member Shelby is on his way, so we will get started. I just want to start by welcoming our witnesses, folks that have been in service to this country for a long, long time. Acting Sec- retary John Roth has over 40 years of service to this Nation as a Department of Defense civilian. With a background in budgeting and financial management, his background makes him an ideal witness for this hearing today. General Charles Brown is the Chief of Staff of the Air Force. His record as a pilot and commander is exceptional, and I might add, he also makes an outstanding travel companion. General, I want to thank you for visiting Malmstrom Air Force Base and the Mon- tana Air National Guard a few weeks ago. And I just have a question I want you to address in your opening statement, and that is what does the Q in C.Q. Brown stand for? [Laughter.] Senator TESTER. Other than that, it is good. And finally, General John W. Raymond, Chief of Space Oper- ations, welcome. General Raymond has over 30 years career in the space positions and is our Nation's first leader of Space Force. This is the subcommittee's first hearing with General Raymond, and I look forward to hearing your assessment of Space Force and where it stands today. (1)
