U.S. Army establishes Cyber Command

When I first heard about it, I thought that USCYBERCOM would end up becoming another branch of the U.S. military vs. the Army, Navy, Marines, and Air Force each getting their own. I could see them thinking that "the net" is just another type of terrain/environment for warfare. I don't think it is a bad idea to have the knowledge and resources in more places (after all, each branch has aviation, etc.), but I'm still surprised.

USCYBERCOM ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Cyber_Command ) is composed of:

- Army Forces Cyber Command (Army)
