Army Bringing In Big Tech Executives As Lieutenant Colonels
[Task & Purpose via American Liberty] The Army is swearing in top tech executives from Meta, OpenAI and Palantir as senior officers to be part-time advisors.

By Patty Nieberg Task & Purpose

Four senior executives of tech giants like Meta and Palantir are being sworn into the Army Reserve as direct-commissioned officers at the unusually high rank of lieutenant colonel as part of a new program to recruit private-sector experts to speed up tech adoption.

The Army calls the program to recruit Silicon Valley executives Detachment 201: The Army’s Executive Innovation Corps. One of the executives, Andrew Bosworth of Meta (formerly Facebook) posted on X that the "201" monicker was a nod to an HTTP coding command, in which a "201" response indicates the creation of a new programming resource.
