	I have seen claims that dozens of nations are developing offensive
cyber capabilities.  I have also heard ideas that the US gov't is
floating the idea of using national guardsmen to fill the ranks of
information warfighters.  I can imagine a number of agencies who have
their own minions of candidates, all of whom have been trained on the
job.  Is on the job training the only way that governments (the US, in
particular) will train information warfighters or will there be some
sort of academy for supergeek warriors?  I have found a program at the
Naval Postgraduate School that handles more or less the electronics side
(TEMPEST, EMF, etc.).  The NSA has started a program for creating
Centers For Excellence where information assurance topics are taught (a
necessary but insufficient background) that I know of.  Does anybody
know of any more general or specific training programs for information
warfighters?  Or for policy makers, analysists, idealogists, and
theorists?
