Which position is listed as one of the six Under Secretaries of Defense?

• A. Under Secretary of Defense for Policy
• B. Under Secretary of Defense for Space
• C. Under Secretary of Defense for Science and Technology
• D. Under Secretary of Defense for Domestic Security

Answer: (A)

This question tests your familiarity with the Department of Defense leadership structure. The DoD is guided by the Secretary and supported by several Under Secretaries who oversee major areas. One of these real positions is the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, who directs defense policy, strategy, and international defense relations. The other options listed are not official DoD Under Secretary titles, so they don’t appear among the six. Therefore, the correct choice is the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy.
