On July 15, 2022, Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks, in coordination with the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), amended her original direction to the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence & Security by renaming and expanding the scope of the Airborne Object Identification and Management Group (AOIMSG) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), due to the enactment of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal 2022, which included a provision to establish an office, in coordination with DNI, with responsibilities that were broader than those originally assigned to the AOIMSG.
Today, USD(I&S) Hon. Ronald S. Moultrie informed the department of the establishment of AARO within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security, and named Dr. Sean M. Kirkpatrick, most recently the chief scientist at the Defense Intelligence Agency's Missile and Space Intelligence Center, as the director of AARO.
The mission of the AARO will be to synchronize efforts across the Department of Defense, and with other U.S. federal departments and agencies, to detect, identify and attribute objects of interest in, on or near military installations, operating areas, training areas, special use airspace and other areas of interest, and, as necessary, to mitigate any associated threats to safety of operations and national security. This includes anomalous, unidentified space, airborne, submerged and transmedium objects.
The AARO Executive Council (AAROEXEC), led by Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence & Security (USD(I&S)) Ronald Moultrie, will provide oversight and direction to the AARO along these primary lines of effort:
1. Surveillance, Collection and Reporting
2. System Capabilities and Design
3. Intelligence Operations and Analysis
4. Mitigation and Defeat
5. Governance
6. Science and Technology
I wonder how long it took to come up with that acronym. It seems to be the favorite past-time of government bureaucrats, aside from spending money, of course.
The swamp will do anything to avoid the truth.
Ballistic Logistics Office of Actionable Terminology
I thought it was another ministry of truth.

So, to summarize:
DSD Hicks, in coordination with DNI, provided an AOD to the USDIS by renaming AOIMSG to AARO, due to the enactment of the NDAA for fiscal 2022, in coordination with DNI, with responsibilities that were broader than those originally assigned to the AOIMSG.
Today, USD(I&S) Hon. Ronald S. Moultrie informed the department of the establishment of AARO within the OUSD(I&S), and named Dr. Sean M. Kirkpatrick, most recently the CS at DIAM&SIC as the director of AARO.
M-O-U-S-E!

Sounds like a word salad to me. ðð
Another ministry of truth; actually that’s right on target.

You need a decoder ring to make sense of that alphabet soup! Is there an app for that?
Another agency upon hundreds of others that will amount to jack sh*t.
Maybe on the Apple Watch. ðĪ
lol...
Well, ask yourself, how many self respecting smart phone owners, would dare to have a ministry of truth app on their phones? ðð
Now I’m on Nick Danger - I should have you arrested for something - illegally taking me back to the past or something or other ... but I’ll never forget Betty Jo Bioleski or whatever her name was. Audrey Farber? ;-)
Great stereo separation. ;-)
