The California Congressional delegation, led by Sen. Barbara Boxer (D), Sen. Diane Feinstein (D), and Rep. Wally Herger (R), sent Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne a letter, extolling the benefits the service would accrue from placing its new Cyber Command at Beale Air Force Base. They write that Beale would provide “unmatched opportunities to develop public-private partnerships” with computer and engineering-related occupations, as well as academic institutions, that the Air Force has said “is a vital requirement.” California is one of eight states interested in securing the new command.
Air Force Special Warfare can improve how it teaches candidates teamwork, stress tolerance, and other nontechnical attributes, according to a new RAND report.
