Stevenson’s army, May 13

– WH released a 34-page executive order on cybersecurity. And a shorter fact sheet. And the transcript of a press briefing.  Now you know what I know.
– 3 defense think tanks released a defense budget simulator. But it doesn’t seem to be working yet. Bookmark for later.
-Experts released a plan to prevent the next pandemic.
-Peter Feaver asseses the old officers’ screed.
-DOD refuses to discuss Afghan relocation in open session.
– And Politico says the Afghan blame game is on.
Note: I’ll be away for a few days but a neighbor will save my papers. I’ll have more news next week.
