Musings, leadership tidbits and quotes posted by a retired Navy Captain (really just a high performing 2nd Class Petty Officer) who hung up his uniform a bit too early. He still wears his Navy service on his sleeve. He needs to get over that. "ADVANCE WARNING - NO ORIGINAL THOUGHT!" A "self-appointed" lead EVANGELIST for the "cryptologic community". Keeping CRYPTOLOGY alive-one day and Sailor at a time. 2015 is 80th Anniversary of the Naval Security Group.

Global Commons - gaining popularity in DoD terminology
"Global Commons" is a term which is gaining popularity in DoD circles. We are seeing it more and more in strategy documents and in speeches by senior DoD and Navy officials.
In the civilian commercial sector we are seeing "Global Commons" as a reference to (1) information, (2) commerce and (3) community.
For DoD, "Global Commons" broadly refers to the domains of (1) land, (2) sea, and (3) air - including space and cyberspace.
In old English law, the common (or commons) was a tract of ground shared by residents of a village of town, but not belonging to anyone in particular.
