The Navy announced Friday that Rear Adm. William Leigher will be assigned as deputy commander, Fleet Cyber Command/10th Fleet.
The command, based at Fort Meade, Md., was established earlier this year after the Pentagon’s formation of U.S. Cyber Command in June. Fleet Cyber Command/10th Fleet will serve as one of its component commands, the way Naval Forces Central Command/5th Fleet is a component of Central Command.
Vice Adm. Barry McCullough, who had been serving as the Navy’s head of capabilities and resources, was nominated in October to be commander of the Navy’s new Fleet Cyber Command/10th Fleet.
Leigher is currently serving as director of information operations and deputy director of Naval Intelligence for Cryptology on the Navy staff in Washington, D.C.
Also on Friday, Rear Adm. Norman R. Hayes was named director of intelligence, J2, U.S. European Command, Stuttgart-Vaihingen, Germany. Hayes is now director, National Security Operations Center, National Security Agency, Fort Meade.
