The Joint Munitions Command, headquartered at Rock Island Arsenal in Illinois, is helping to develop a trio of young professionals: MacKenzie Kent, Austin Tubbs, and Addison Southwick. They are currently serving as student trainees in JMC's Security Assistance Management Directorate.
SAMD's mission supports the U.S. national security strategy by fostering partnerships and improved interoperability, providing benefits to Joint Services and the JMC Organic Industrial Base.
