More evidence of how well "Team IDC" is positioned to move the "cyberspace operations" ball forward. If we don't get beyond the current line of scrimmage, we have no one else to blame. Good game plan, great players...now if we could just work together.

Would hate to rank those two... speaking of which, do O7's get ranked in a command like USCOYBERCOM? As 2 1610's, will they be ranked against each other? Or does that stop at Flag level?
