support of operations in Bosnia; Kosovo; Afghanistan; Iraq and other locations. As the

• 2007 – 2009 Deputy Commander US Army Intelligence and Security Command:
Selected by the Army Intelligence Senior Leaders to be the Deputy Commander of INSCOM.
Uniquely qualified due to experience in Cyber policy formulation, force structure,
development of programs and projects. The G2 of the Army directed I was to oversee all
changes to Cyber Policy, USSIDS and other pertinent policies for two years and was in
charge of Congressional liaison for INSCOM. Ensured that INSCOM developed its’ own
robust Cyber policy and planning capability. Often coordinated directly with DIR NSA,
OSD Staff and other IC agencies that included who would be in charge of Cyber in the US
Army, how INSCOM would support and deconflict between US Army Cyber, US Cyber
Command, NSA, Combatant Commands, Army Component Commands, and Special
Mission Units. In charge of a $2.2 billion budget with 16,000 personnel. Provided policy
and/or intelligence analysis as required by the National Command Authority. Coordinated
these issues with other Congress, other agencies and services as well as combatant
commands. Directed to aid in fixes to HUMINT/CI; IT architecture; contracts and moving
enduring missions to based funding. Also had to explain the online CI concept and protect it
from other agencies. This required direct coordination with DIR NSA and explaining how the
documents and policies at the time permitted this kind of operation. Convinced all agencies
involved that the Army Field Support Command, later that Army Operations Group could
support Cyber through CI/HUMINT means that was adopted and currently practiced today.
All of this was based on warfighter requirements.
• June 2002 – June 2007 USAREUR G2 Plans, Ops and Architecture: Tasked to aid in the
development of the Architecture in Afghanistan because of demonstrated expertise in
USAREUR, created a project to improve the architecture in Afghanistan that included how
SIGINT and Cyber could better support operations given the state of policy at that time.
Personally tasked by the CG USAREUR with writing the scenaribecaos for all mission
rehearsal exercises of all deploying units using 95% real world intelligence and to
incorporate real world SIGINT and Cyber/Information Operations into the exercise. One of
the items injected into the exercise was thumb drives being sold locally, everyone laughed
that would not happen but once the unit was in Afghanistan they discovered classified thumb
drives being sold at the local market. Aided in the implementation of certain special access
capabilities for intelligence collection that used both SIGINT and Cyber for ACCM and
Once again, this required careful understanding of policies, as they existed at the time.
Developed theater and Army Service component policy and foreign engagement places,
procedures and regulations for USAREUR G3 for Crisis Action Team and G2 (SIGINT,
Cyber and HUMINT Operations, and Contract Oversight). Directed by the CG USAREUR to

threats and performed command and control of the 173rd Abn Bde and its’ hand over to
SOCCENT CG for parachute jump into Iraq. Had to assess and downsize USAREUR
projects constantly. Reduced from 800 contractors down to 200 over a 5 year period. This
was based on operational warfighter requirements and the lessening of those requirements
due to our presence in Kosovo, Bosnia and our ability to be more effective and efficient with
new systems and programs. All of this was based on Warfighter requirements. Member of the
Polo Step Planning Group
• JSOC J2 Plans and OPS June 1999 – June 2001: Aided the JSOC J3 Information
Operations Officer, now MG John Davis, in the planning what is now called Cyber in JSOC
exercises. This required direct coordination with the SECDEF and his staff, NSA and other
Intelligence organizations to include White House Advisors. Initially everything was on
closed systems and PDAS. Aided in the interpretation of policy from the JSOC and SOCOM
perspective, particularly with NSA and OSD. This required work from the law and abstract
policy level to implementation at the same time. The policy documents at that time were
more primitive and it was difficult to explain the national security objectives and how JSOC
could achieve those objectives through various Cyber/Information Operations and SIGINT
capabilities. It truly required reading all USC Title 10, 50, 20 and 18 as well as the other
existing policy documents at that time. Then proving with our exercise applications the
validity and requirement for Cyber/Information Operations. Those operations could be
controlled without collateral damage. This involved briefings to the SECDEF, his staff, NSA
and Congressional Liaison. This required development, assessment and implementation of
several classified projects that were SAP, STO and others. Some slides about these
capabilities and exercises were briefed to POTUS. All of this was based on warfighter
requirements.

the Global War On Terrorism and with SIGINT and sanitized Cyber information/intelligence
for the Prime Minister and tactical forces. Often reported directly to DEPSECSTATE
