Many of you will be familiar with the work of Christian Lowe, who has worked at Army Times and more recently the Politico and has been a frequent contributor to both THE WEEKLY STANDARD and THE DAILY STANDARD (his wife is also a colleague of ours). Christian has now taken a new job as the managing editor of Military.com, and he will also be editing the blog Defense Tech. Christian is an excellent reporter, perhaps most famous for an investigation exposing the procurement of thousands of substandard body-armor vests by the Marine Corps that were subsequently deployed to Iraq. In any case, Christian’s leadership guarantees that Defense Tech will remain one of the best sources on the web for reporting on new military technologies. So if you’re not already a regular reader, you should be.
