@USArmyCMH My grandfather, Jack Dreyfus, escaped Nazi Germany and served in the US Army. He took part in the liberation of Ohrdruf. These are some of the photographs he took of that moment in history.

Loved joining @lawfare to chat about why I think the US needs a Cyber Force! I discuss arguments underlying the report @MarkCMontgomery and I recently published, which you can read here: @ColumbiaSIPA @SIPAcyber @SIWPSColumbia
On Lawfare Daily, @EugeniaLostri spoke to @eborghard about her report making the case for establishing a U.S. Cyber Force, the types of problems the cyber mission faces, different ways in which they can be addressed, and more.
