About Daniel Bradley

My professional or technical qualifications and educational background include training in my initial MOS of Air Traffic Controller at NAS Pensacola. After my lateral move into Imagery Analysis, I received my initial Imagery Analysis Training at Goodfellow AFB, San Antonio, TX in 2004. I received training in several different imagery disciplines throughout my career to include the following courses: Community Imagery Analysis Course, GEOINT Information Management Services, Fundamentals of Thermal Infrared (TIR) Exploitation and Analysis I, Geospatial Intelligence Requirements Management Course, and I am GEOINT Professional Certification – Fundamentals (GCP-F) Certified. Additionally, I have received training in collection management at the Naval Collection Management Course (NCMC), the Naval Space Operations Course, the PACOM Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, & Collections Management Course, and I have been certified as a Collection Manager through the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). I have served as an Imagery Chief at a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Detachment and at the regimental level while deployed in Iraq in 2005 and 2006, augmenting the regiments with imagery an topographic support from 1st Intelligence Battalion. I served as the Imagery and Collections Chief with the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU). I served at an Imagery Team Lead at Marine Corps Intelligence Activity (MCIA), my team produced several imagery products that received national attention during the Haitian Earth Quake Humanitarian Disaster and also during the Libyan Crisis. I’ve served as an Intelligence Chief for an advisor team while deployed to Afghanistan from 2012-2013 and then at Marine Aircraft Group 11 (MAG-11) upon my return from Afghanistan prior to moving to the 3d Marine Aircraft Wing Headquarters Squadron to support the G-2 Collections section as the platoon sergeant. In Okinawa, Japan I served at both 3d Intelligence Battalion and the Marine Expeditionary Force MEF) G-2 as their Collections Chief. During my time there I restructured the Collections architecture of the subordinate units to provide more efficient and timely collections support to all units under MEF. The model developed by my collections team resulted in the ongoing efforts to set I MEF and II MEF collections sections into similar structures that will better support their mission sets. Currently I am serving as the II MEF G-2 Imagery Chief and Collections Manager writing and developing policies and plans for future operations.
