In Maryland, the requirement to possess a Handgun Qualification License has five exemptions, including being an active or retired member of the United States Armed Forces or National Guard and possessing a valid military identification card. Are Reservists included in this exemption?

Does this mean "active" in the sense that they must be active duty, or in the sense that they must have an active contract in a branch of the armed forces?

Reservists are not Active Duty or part of the National Guard. However, Reservists go through the exact same basic training (firearms included) and have an active monthly and annual commitment.

The US Gives Cyber Command the Status It Deserves - "administration directive to elevate United States Cyber Command, currently a division of the National Security Agency, to the status of a unified military command."

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 74%. (I'm a bot)


> "The elevation of United States Cyber Command demonstrates our increased resolve against cyberspace threats and will also help streamline command and control of time-sensitive cyberspace operations. Elevation will also ensure that critical cyberspace operations are adequately funded."

> Since the tools and strategies that enable digital intelligence-gathering are similar in many ways to those required for cyberwarfare, the NSA made for a natural first home for Cyber Command.

> As part of transition to the status of a unified command, Secretary of Defense James Mattis will nominate a new Cyber Command leader.

> Even the first step of elevating Cyber Command to a unified command sends a geopolitical message that the US military has prioritized its digital offense and defense, while also streamlining recruitment and funding for this initiative.

> The elevation of Cyber Command will likely be an intermediary step in a larger evolution, but by removing a level of subordination and making the unit more independent, the move already opens the door to changes in how the US military incorporates and recognizes digital offense and defense.

> "The first step starts the initiative and that cultural shift, they might even have a Cyber Command academy just like you have the Naval Academy. But especially when you have so many intertwined intricacies between NSA and Cyber Command the phased approach makes sense. You can't just run out of the building and set up a shop across the street."
