GEN Christopher LaNeve started @AUSAorg 2026 with the Leader Solarium, where he and SMA Michael Weimer met with battalion commanders and command sergeants major on the Army’s new operational guidance How the Army Fights.
He also met with industry leaders to discuss modernization and see the latest tech.
He congratulated the Army’s Best Squad, and Soldier and NCO of the Year, and spent time with the Volunteer Family of the Year before answering some tough questions at the Warfighter and Family Forum.
A full day of leaders, industry, and the force in one place. The Army is the foundation of the Joint Force. #AUSA2026
