- First off, for folks that don't know you, can you tell us a bit about your current role and background?- On that same note, can you tell the audience a bit about Anduril, the mission of the organization and some of the current initiatives it is working on?- What are some of the biggest challenges of being a new entrant in a space such as the DoD, which has longstanding system integrators and large prime contractors who have deep relationships, industry expertise/experience and so on?- I know you're passionate about the ATO process. What are your thoughts on how it stands currently and the impact it has on both new entrants, as well as impacting the ability to get innovative capabilities into the hands of warfighters and mission owners?- CMMC- We know your organization is looking to bring innovative commercial technologies into Defense, what are some of the challenges there beyond the ATO aspect?- Outside of the technical aspect, we know the DoD and Federal space have longstanding challenges with attracting and retaining technical talent. How does that impact your abilities to be effective in this space with your Government peers, and additionally, how does Anduril navigate that when looking to attract modern digital talent to a space like Defense?- Many are now arguing that cybersecurity is a domain of warfare and we're seeing the use of phrases such as "Software-Defined Warfare" by organizations such as The Atlantic Council. How important do you think modern digital capabilities are to national security and why?- DevSecOps thoughts
As part of my job I've been sent by CBS to Union Square. I decided to stop by my high school alma mater, I'm at the Church of St. Francis Xavier on sixteenth street. They're having a sunrise mass filled with prayer for our soldiers and other war workers. The people are stoic. Now isn't the time to lose ourselves in emotion. Sunrise is at 5:25AM. I hear American troops have turned the tide of battle at the Omaha landing point, with warships backing them up at sea. Give a listen to the CBS broadcast. David Anderson, Arthur Mann, Paul White, and Edward R. Murrow have reports from London. Quentin Reynolds will describe Eisenhower's speech to occupied Europe, while Bill Henry and Joe McCaffrey report from Washington.

Questions addressed include:• Are the DoD's estimated CMMC cost figures reasonable?• How should contractors treat and allocate the costs associated with CMMC?• Will CMMC costs incurred prior to winning a contract requiring CMMC be questioned?• What can contractors do to minimize the costs associated with CMMC?

Dave McConnell on women in politics ~ "They have gotten a raw deal in politics, in the Senate, in the House, for a long, long time and I'm glad to see things are changing." Dave McConnell, Capitol Hill Reporter for WTOP and host Andy Ockershausen in studio interview Andy Ockershausen: I'm Andy Ockershausen. This is Our Town and I'm getting a wonderful, wonderful, opportunity to talk to an old friend. He's really not old but he's been around longer than I, almost as long as I have, Dave, which is pretty spectacular. Dave McConnell, the star of WTOP, the number one reporter on the Hill. You've been there longer than anybody. Dave McConnell: I probably have by now on the radio television side. I think there are a couple of print guys that have longer times in than me. Hill Reporting | Joe McCaffrey Andy Ockershausen: You have ingrained yourself so much into that Hill, and I have been a fan of yours since. Thank God you got that good WMAL training before you went out on the street and work with a lot of professionals. And all these years you work with a lot of pros. It helps you, David. Dave McConnell: It does. Andy Ockershausen: It keeps you on your toes. Dave McConnell: Absolutely. Andy Ockershausen: I'm sure you remember it was our friend, Joe McCaffrey. Dave McConnell: I do indeed. Andy Ockershausen: He got into the newspaper business and we lost track of him. I don't know. He died or whatever. He was down in Virginia somewhere. Dave McConnell: When I first came to the Hill I used to see Joe, yeah. He was still there. Eddie Gallagher | Mark Evans Andy Ockershausen: Yeah. Well, I think he got out of the army here and didn't leave. WTOP, one of my favorite sounds. I remember when it was WJSV. I remember the lineup was Eddie Gallagher. Who was following them? The morning man was, oh God. Well Eddie did that moonlight show. What was it called? Dreams or something? Dave McConnell: Well, there was- Andy Ockershausen: Mark Evans! Dave McConnell: Yeah, that's right. Mark Evans. Housewives protectively. Andy Ockershausen: HPL, right? Dave McConnell: Yeah. Andy Ockershausen: I was a CBS guy and I was at his funeral and had a chance to talk about him a little bit. Jim Gibbons, who had been working for us along with. But WTOP was such a powerhouse with that 1,500 signal and nobody could compete with that. Then FM came along. Then FM was made by WTOP-FM, by switching at FM station. They bought the station, right? Dave McConnell: Yes. Andy Ockershausen: WGMS. Dave McConnell: Our original FM station, we gave away to Howard University. Andy Ockershausen: And Mrs. Graham? Dave McConnell: Well, Katherine Graham, Larry Israel, was running the station then I'm thinking. Larry Israel | WTOP Went All News and WMAL Made Deal for Games Andy Ockershausen: Yeah. I was talking about Larry, paying him a compliment because I got to know Larry quite well because it was a small town then, Dave. Ain't that way anymore. Dave McConnell: No. Andy Ockershausen: You knew everybody, everybody knew you. Management, talent, whatever. We were all together, you know the hangouts were the same; the Dancing Crab, or Duke's Restaurant, or whatever it was. It doesn't exist anymore, the camaraderie. But Larry Israel called me one day and said that they were broadcasting Maryland football, and he said, this is like 1968-70, said, "We're going all news and I'm not gonna be able to do any more play-by-play because you can't do both. You can't be all news and do play-by-play." It was his theory. Dave McConnell: Mm-hmm (affirmative) Andy Ockershausen: And I supported that because he's right, you can't have a baseball game on and say you're doing all news. And he couldn't have a football game. So, he tipped us and we called over there and made a deal to take the games off of WTOP. And that's when people were close, I don't think that exists in radio anymore. Lot of competitiveness, but work together. Dave McConnell: Well, yeah,
