R3 Strategic Support Group, Inc.

R3 Strategic Support Group, Inc. bids farewell to Michael Jordan as he heads into retirement. "MJ" supported R3 for the past 10-years, building upon a highly successful 30-year Naval Career in #EOD with multiple, Major Command assignments, to include CTF 56, where he led Commander, U.S. FIFTH Fleet’s largest task force. Always a team player and consummate professional, MJ provided experience and expertise to projects advancing doctrine, training, operations, and material & logistics. Most recently, he supported assessments and analyses for the Maritime Expeditionary Security Force (MESF) keeping pace with Force Design initiatives that will help posture the force for the next 5-10 years. #MESF #NavyEOD MJ was in San Diego for MESF and we surprised him with a luncheon at our new office. His friendship and mentorship will be missed. Fair winds and following seas MJ!   Pictured L-R: Mike Albelo, Marc Tranchemontagne, Edan Antoine, Michael Jordan, Chris Merwin, Dean Muriano, Rex Rousseau, Greg Caro, and Andrew Bradley.
