Rear Admiral Gretchen Herbert, Commander, Navy Cyber Forces, pins the Information Dominance Warfare Officer (IDWO) pin on Commander Allen M. Williams, Afloat Unit Level Training Officer, N7 (Training and Readiness Department) for Navy Cyber Forces. The IDWO pin signifies Williams' milestone accomplishment of earning the Navy's newest warfare pin. Herbert began the ceremony by announcing that it was a historic moment, recounting what Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Information Dominance (N2/N6), Vice Admiral Kendall L. Card, said 14 months ago when Williams requested to enroll in the IDWO program. "He understands the cyberspace domain," said Card. The Soldotna, Alaska native was one of the first non-Information Dominance Corps officers in the Navy to earn the IDWO pin. Williams thanked his shipmates for their assistance and simply stated the he was "...paving the path for others to follow." U.S. Navy Photo By George D. Bieber). 130214-N-BM483-006
