Description As most of you know, the President's Budget was released last week. Positioning, jockeying and negotiations are in full swing in the Pentagon and on Capital Hill. This week we will hear from a "DC" Defense Consultant who will give us his "View from the Beltway" and respond to your questions and comments. Thomas J. “TJ” Stapleton Stapleton & Associates is a worldwide consulting firm that serves a “gold plated,” client base that includes the world’s largest aerospace company; the largest provider of microchips to the Pentagon, and the world’s largest industrial battery company. With over a decade of successfully serving clients, TJ has a reputation on both Capitol Hill and in the private sector as a positive, proactive business leader. In the Pentagon, he served in the Army Budget Office as both and analyst and programmer for the Army budget office. He also served as a Congressional Fellow on Capitol Hill for Senator Christopher “Kit” Bond (MO), and then finished his military career serving in the Army Budget Liaison Office as a liaison between the Army and the Defense Appropriations committees on Capitol Hill. After retiring from the Army, TJ went back to Capitol Hill to serve as the primary Defense staffer to Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison (TX). A retired Army Officer, TJ spent over 20 years in service to his nation to include time at Ft Bragg as the Battalion Executive for the Army's High Mobility Rocket System test platoon as part of the 18th Field Artillery Brigade (Airborne). With command and staff assignments all over the world, he also served in both Operation Just Cause (Panama-1989) and Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm (1990-1991). He was awarded the Bronze Star for service in Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Additionally, he is a survivor of the attacks on the Pentagon on 9/11.
