A Global Counterterrorism Network

Assistant Secretary of Defense Michael Vickers appeared at The Washington Institute for Middle East Policy's special event yesterday (the 24th) and gave a superb top-down view of the roles and direction of U.S. Special Operations Command.

Here's a summary, with links to the full transcript.

M. Vickers is in a key position on the policy and civilian control side of USSOCOM leadership. More, he has had tremendous influence on policy for future operational needs.

I didn't read the transcript- but what he had to say, sure is on a postive note!
