Steve Younger
For all the rumormongering that went on when he was named Lab Director, by all accounts Steve Younger and his team have done a good job of transitioning SNL leadership. Their model of full housecleaning of the previous L-M managers above the GL level looks to have been what was desired by NNSA. Anyone want to wager if Younger is making a behind the scene effort to duplicate the win at LANL?

Explains why Younger hired Steve "Rambo" Girrens. I think Younger always was jealous of Girrens hateful but deceptive attitude toward employees. So he hired him.
Younger is no friend of UC, and was the leader of the opposition bid team for running LLNL. Would not at all find it out of character for him to be looking to even the score.
Younger has Burns and Girrens with him to be the hatchet men and each of them look to enjoy the role.
I think Oppenheimer himself could come back to run the labs and people would hate him on this blog.
Younger knows the SNL mission space well and finished very close behind Hommert to succeed Hunter as Laboratories Director. Expect him to be most successful in the role and lead the organization to serve the Nation's needs.
How do you Sandians like Rambo (i.e. Girrens) ? This guy is bad news to the bone. He will hug and embrace you when he first meets you, give his sincere bullshit and then screw you over when he feels like. He screwed many folks over at LANL. He doesn't like anyone that knows more than him. BAD NEWS!

Of the 3 Lab directors now, Steve is the only one with credibility in Washington. In the wild West of the political arena, he is expected to do very well for SNL.
Sandia has always done well inside the beltway, largely because of their culture of customer focus, as well as their overwhelming presence there.
Sandia does well because their mission more closely aligns with weapons production which is the focus of the NNSA.
