Craig Duehring became the assistant secretary of the Air Force for manpower and reserve affairs during a recent ceremony. He is a 28-year Air Force veteran. “There is the continuing challenge of providing qualified personnel to continue to fight in the global war on terrorism,” Duehring told the Senate Armed Services during his confirmation hearing in December 2007. “We must reduce the stress on airmen and their families who are shouldering the burden of repeated operational rotations.”
The nominee to lead U.S. Cyber Command and the National Security Agency touted the value of the organizations’ dual-hat command structure and urged caution toward creating a dedicated cyber military service in written testimony to Congress released Jan. 15.
