The Situation Room Experience: Leadership Challenge

Last month, George W. Bush Presidential Library hosted 24 ambitious & motivated high school students at its 4th Annual Camp43, which included a spin in The Situation Room: goo.gl/dZo9tb #leadership #potential #nolimits

From the New York Times: "In White House war games, maybe a lesson for Trump’s promised arms race Senior national security officials for President Obama are hosting their counterparts on President-elect Trump’s team on Friday for a war-gaming exercise at the White House intended to practice the response to a major domestic or international emergency.... The session, similar to one that George W. Bush’s staff held in the restricted Situation Room for Mr. Obama’s team just days before he was inaugurated in 2009, aims to familiarize the incoming president’s team with the protocols and practices the federal government uses in a crisis. Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary, said it would simulate what happens during major domestic incidents, including natural disasters. In the exercise in 2009, top Bush administration officials walked Mr. Obama’s aides through what would happen in the event of an attack involving a series of explosions detonating in a number of American cities simultaneously."
