When I joined back in 2002, we were known as Communications, or Comm. The Cyber thing is actually pretty new. In the last few years, I was still calling us Comm guys. I had a new Airmen ask me why I didn’t call us Cyber guys; apparently, they finally started teaching that in our tech school. Our squadrons are still called Communications Squadrons, though.
So is there a contractual obligation in the military to use the word “cyber” 42 times a day?
