As the commandant’s Force Design 2030 attempt and the recently published Talent Management 2030 plan continue to transform the Marine Corps, cyber and information warfare Marines may be further enabled to use their electronic knowledge to produce important advantages for kinetic forces in the coming years, according to one official. Col. Brian Russell, who controls the II MEF Information Group, said Nov. 10 during a conversation as part of C4ISRNET’s CyberCon that the Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group (MIG) formation, which was fielded four years ago, has already taken major steps in teaching fellow Marines on how to perform despite cybersecurity threats as well as displaying MEF commanders how to mix a variety of kinetic and non-kinetic options.
