Christine Beeler, chief of Program Executive Office Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI), presented the Army Acquisition Corps flag and charter for Project Manager Cyber Test and Training (PM CT2) to Army Col. Natashia Coleman during an assumption of charter ceremony, Jan. 16.

Christina Bell relinquished the charter after serving as acting project manager of PM CT2 for the previous six months. Going forward, Coleman will oversee more than 80 programs valued at over $1 billion, supported by more than 400 military, civilian and industry personnel in Orlando, Florida, and Redstone Arsenal, Alabama.

PM CT2 supports combatant commands, the Test and Evaluation Enterprise, and Special Operations Command with solutions for cyber electromagnetic activity, communications networks, nuclear and environmental tests, as well as synthetic training to help the DOD achieve joint all-domain operations.
