Capstone is a mission designed to support which individuals?

• A. Mission for POTUS
• B. Mission for newly appointed flag officers or generals
• C. Mission for VPOTUS
• D. Mission for White House staff

Answer: (B)

Capstone focuses on supporting individuals stepping into senior leadership roles. Specifically, it is designed to assist newly appointed flag officers or generals as they begin their command and staff duties. The idea is to provide tailored security coordination, liaison support, and advisory help so these leaders can focus on strategic decisions rather than navigating the transition and accompanying security requirements.

This isn’t aimed at the President, Vice President, or White House staff, whose security and operational needs are handled through separate, specialized programs. The target audience for Capstone is those newly promoted to flag/General officer status and entering that high-level leadership phase.
