US Military Command Expands Public Outreach Efforts
The US Central Command has launched a new podcast, Inside CENTCOM, featuring informal conversations with its leaders and personnel. The first episode, hosted by Fleet Master Chief Lateef Compton, includes a discussion with Adm. Brad Cooper, but avoids addressing the ongoing war with Iran. This move comes as CENTCOM has maintained tight control over information related to the conflict, with sporadic video updates on the blockade of Iranian ports and the status of the Strait of Hormuz. The podcast was first reported by Task & Purpose.
