From the executive summary: “On 5 February 2021, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin issued a memorandum directing a one-day stand-down to discuss and address extremism in the Department of Defense (DOD). On 9 April 2021, the Secretary issued a second memorandum, directing immediate actions to counter prohibited extremist activities in the Department and establishing a working group to implement those actions and develop additional recommendations. One of the immediate actions called for by the April 9 Memorandum was an independent study on extremist behavior in the Total Force. On June 21, 2021, this study was awarded to the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA).”
