About this event
JSOU Snapshot is a series of short learning videos made just for you, busy special operations professionals, to educate and inform on topics of interest, confusion, controversy, and question. The objective of these short videos is to teach or clarify concepts that are important for you to know, in 5 minutes or less. In this video, we consider the cutting edge technology called nanotechnology -- what it is, and what it is used for. Next week we will explore what all of this means for SOF. Keep an eye out for more JSOU Snapshots in the near future!
