The Louisiana folks interested in gaining the Air Force’s new Cyber Command are working more than land to sweeten the pot. The Shreveport Times reports that Bossier Parish and Bossier City area officials are beginning to look at helping develop a potential workforce, not just for the new command but for the related facilities and businesses certain to congregate around the new command. Louisiana is joined in this race to secure Cyber Command by California, Nebraska, and Texas—at least those are the ones we know so far.
The Air Force kicked off one of its biggest exercises this week with the latest edition of Bamboo Eagle, featuring combined virtual and live training scenarios focused on test the command-and-control “nervous system” leaders need to operate on a complex joint battlefield spread over vast distances.
