Trump nominates Heidi Berg to lead Fleet Cyber Command

President Donald Trump has tapped Rear Adm. Heidi Berg to command U.S. Fleet Cyber Command, Navy Space Command and 10th Fleet, the Pentagon announced Friday.

If her nomination is confirmed by the Senate, she’ll also pin on a third star.

Fleet Cyber Command is the Navy’s component command to U.S. Cyber Command and is responsible for Navy information network operations and offensive and defensive cyberspace ops.

Navy Space Command is charged with planning, integrating, coordinating and conducting “full-spectrum” operations for U.S. Space Command, according to the Navy.

10th Fleet exercises operational control over Fleet Cyber Command-assigned forces.

Berg, a Naval Academy graduate, is currently serving as deputy commander of those organizations.

Her previous assignments include director of strategy, plans and policy (J-5) at Cybercom, deputy for plans and policy at Fleet Cyber Command, and acting director of the Navy Digital Warfare Office, among others, according to her Navy bio.
