Nathan Freier, a senior fellow with the CSIS International Security Program, was quoted by Reuters, "Analysis: US Military's Odd Couple Rises Up the Ranks."

Nathan Freier, a retired army lieutenant colonel who has known Odierno since the 1991 Gulf War, said he had developed a deep knowledge of Iraq almost unrivaled in the U.S. military that made him a strong choice for the top job.
