Webster Distinguished Service Award Dinner. Each year it is our honor to recognize the achievements of a current or past member of the intelligence community whose service has added immeasurably to the safety and security of the international community. Tonight, we also inaugurate our first annual Innovation Award, recognizing the contribution of technological development as a key component of the intelligence tool box. As a nonprofit 501(c)(3) institution, the International Spy Museum plays a role that is first and foremost educational in nature. Our goal is to inform the public about the varied functions of intelligence work – both historic and contemporary – and to reveal the effects that intelligence had, and continues to have, on our world. Our newly, expanded facility at L’Enfant Plaza will only enhance our ability to fulfill that mission. On behalf of everyone at the Museum, we thank you for attending the evening’s festivities and joining with us in celebrating our honoree. Sincerely, Milton Maltz Tamar Maltz Founder and Chairman, Founder and Board Member, International Spy Museum International Spy Museum FOUNDERS ’ GREETING 3 Gala Co-Chairs Dear Guests, This year’s HONORABLE WILLIAM H. WEBSTER DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD is bestowed upon an individual who represents one of the least-known aspects of intelligence work: special operations. Clandestine by definition, special ops depend on the highest degree of professionalism, and no one exemplifies that high standard more than our honoree tonight, Admiral William H. McRaven. In addition, our first annual Innovation Award recognizes another little-known corner of the intelligence world: technology. Here, too, professionalism is at the fore, along with imagination, creativity and – fittingly for tonight’s honoree – vision. As co-chairs of this event, we wish to thank the many people who worked so diligently behind the scenes to ensure its success. We thank as well our Host and Finance Committees, without whose able support we would not be here tonight. Thank you for joining with us in celebrating the achievements of individuals and organizations that contribute so much to the safety and security of us all. General Michael V. Hayden (Ret.)

Enjoyed by millions of visitors each year, the National Mall is a primary location for public gatherings such as demonstrations, national celebrations and special events. Although Washington, D.C., is consistently rated a top destination for domestic and international travelers, and the National Mall is one of the most visited national parks in the country, little systematic attempt has been made to document the influence of the National Mall as a motivating factor for visitation to Washington, D.C., separate from the many other attractions and facilities in the metropolitan area. Accordingly, a visitor study was conducted to assess visitor behaviors and the socioeconomic impacts of visitor spending on the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area. The study addressed the National Mall as a separate entity from the museums and attractions in the area that are not managed by the National Park Service.

You now have a program. We designed this Historical Handbook of National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency Leaders as a useful reference work for anyone who needs fundamental information on the leaders of the NGA. We have included those colleagues over the years who directed the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) and the component agencies and services that came together to initiate NGA-NIMA history in 1996. The NGA History Program Staff did not celebrate these individuals in this setting, although in reading any of these short biographies you will quickly realize that we have much to celebrate. Rather, this practical book is designed to permit anyone to reach back for leadership information to satisfy any personal or professional requirement from analysis, to heritage, to speechwriting, to retirement ceremonies, to report composition, and on into an endless array of possible tasks that need support in this way. We also intend to use this book to inform the public, especially young people and students, about the nature of the people who brought NGA to its present state of expertise.
