Information Warfare is a dead term. IW now stands for Irregular Warfare. Is it only a matter of time before we go back to being Cryptologic Officers? I hope so.

I'm sure some fine people who I once served with help write this. I should have mentored them better so they could have written something that wasn't utterly unreadable. I smell lawyers and turf battles!

Maybe the can work on an executive summary of their mission statement.
