Each agency, with its unique mission, is led by superb professionals, committed to work together to provide the best possible intelligence for the nation. Each agency is marked by high-quality people who are well trained and highly motivated. They are innovative, flexible and creative. They work long hours, sometimes under difficult and dangerous circumstances. They are doing a wonderful job everyday and, despite anecdotal stories to the contrary, their morale is good.
Outstanding technology supports our mission.
Signals and imagery systems provide huge quantities of intelligence of incredible quality. Within the Community the various agencies are working together better than ever, with joint production programs, Community approaches to the toughest problems and the hardest targets, and exchanges of personnel, many in leadership positions. In short, Mr. Chairman, the United States Intelligence Community is in good shape. We meet today's challenges extraordinarily well, perhaps surprisingly so considering the many changes and disruptions of the past several years. Despite this positive assessment, there is much work to be done.
