In this episode, I am speaking to Air Force Lt. Col. Jacob English, a 15-year active-duty officer who is currently Deputy Chief of the Security Cooperation Organization at the United States Embassy in San Salvador, El Salvador. He advises and coordinates training and equipment programs with senior leaders from El Salvador’s military. Among other assignments to include time at the Pentagon and working as an avionics engineer, he deployed to Afghanistan where he managed the purchase of ground wheeled vehicles for the Afghan National Army and Afghan National Police. He also led a pathfinder project that laid the groundwork for total asset visibility in the Air Force supply chain and then went on to get a Master’s degree in Systems Engineering from the Air Force Institute of Technology.
Prior to joining the Air Force, he spent two years working as a missionary in Costa Rica and is a fluent Spanish speaker. He solves tough problems, and I know you'll enjoy listening to his story.
