My Take
Dennis C. Blair is one of those resumes that makes me sit up. A retired four-star Navy admiral who commanded U.S. forces across the Pacific, then served as Director of National Intelligence, with a Rhodes Scholarship and Oxford behind him and a White House Fellowship along the way. The Maine roots and the later turn to teaching round out a life spent inside the machinery of American power. What interests me most is the receipt of Japan's Order of the Rising Sun, first class, a quiet signal of how much his Pacific work mattered diplomatically. This is a career, not a celebrity, and I find that refreshing.
