DFI International announced today that General Dennis J. Reimer, USA (Ret.) will join the organization as president of its government services company. In his new role, General Reimer will provide both strategic direction and daily operational leadership of a premier provider of national security research, analysis, and knowledge management services. Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, DFI International supports clients within the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security, the U.S. intelligence community, and in the private sector. General Reimer served for the past five years as director of the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism, a non-profit organization in Oklahoma City founded to assist state, local, tribal, and national jurisdictions in preparing for and preventing future acts of terrorism on U.S. soil. Previously, General Reimer had served from 1995 to 1999 as the 33rd US Army Chief of Staff. "We simply could not be more delighted and honored to have someone of General Reimer's character, leadership qualities, and experience join our organization. DFI's clients in the defense, intelligence, and homeland security communities have come to expect nothing less than excellence from the company and, under General Reimer's leadership, I am confident that their expectations will continue to be met and exceeded," said Dr. Barry M. Blechman, CEO of DFI International. "I'm looking forward to both the challenge and opportunity of joining this top notch organization," General Reimer said. "Since leaving active duty, I have remained committed to serving our nation's security interests at home and abroad. Joining the fine professional team at DFI offers me a unique opportunity to continue to fulfill this commitment in the nation's capital."
