THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11,2001
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM ET

Christopher Whitcomb, a 15-year veteran of the FBI, served as director of the 
Critical Incident Response Group’s Strategic Information Management Office. In 
this role, he oversaw crisis-specific planning, strategy and dissemination of 
intelligence during weapons of mass destruction attacks, terrorist threats, and 
exotic criminal investigations. 

Whitcomb began his FBI career as a Special Agent in the Kansas City Field 
Office, Springfield Resident Agency, where he worked bank robbery, fugitive, and
violent crime investigations. In 1991, he was selected to the Bureau’s elite 
Hostage Rescue Team, where he distinguished himself as an assaulter, sniper, 
explosive breacher, tactical helicopter operations officer, and surveillance 
photographer. He has been awarded numerous citations and awards, including the 
FBI’s Medal of Bravery for exceptional courage in the line of duty. 

He has participated in nearly every high profile federal investigation over the 
past 10 years, including the L.A. riots, the Weaver shootings at Ruby Ridge, the
Branch Davidian standoff, the World Trade Center and Olympic Park bombings, the 
United Nations war crimes investigation in Kosovo, the U.S.S. Cole attack in 
Yemen, overseas fugitive apprehensions, high-risk dignitary protection details, 
and witness protection assignments.
