Operational Success: DOD and FBI PartnershipJoint efforts between the DOD and the FBI to compare biometric
datasets showed a previously undiscovered trend: numerous individuals that the DOD captures in war zones in Iraq and
Afghanistan have prior criminal histories in the United States. This discovery led to even greater collaboration between the two
agencies in the war theaters.

“Promoting a scientifically educated and aware public is necessary if we are to make the appropriate decisions about the nation’s R&D investments, guide the adoption and debate the societal implications of new science and technologies, and reap the maximum benefits from our investments. The quality of these efforts underpins the entire US scientific enterprise.”
