United States Army Test and Evaluation Command

We have them work through that problem set and develop actionable courses of action.

It could be we buy it, and they directly employ it, or we develop a test case or a test set, and we pull Army Test and Evaluation Command in, or we take the information we know, and we transition all the information that we learned out on one of the ranges here and directly dump that into a program office, who then picks that up and starts to build it out for the mass Army.

I was also in uniform.

So to say that I don't understand authority would be foolish.
