William MacLure was Winston Beauchamp's immediate predecessor in the Air Force special-programs security directorate

Unproven Contradicted by record What these labels mean →

The source implies MacLure handed the directorship to Winston Beauchamp in 2024. The af.mil biography of Jennifer M. Orozco lists '2022–2024, Director, Security Special Program Oversight and Information Protection' (Deputy Director 2020-22; Deputy CIO from 2024), so she, not MacLure, held the post immediately before Beauchamp (September 2024). The succession runs MacLure (from August 2019) → Aquinas/Orozco (2022-24) → Beauchamp (Sep 2024) → Liddiard (Aug 2025). Identity link: Jennifer Aquinas (2023 NDIA speaker) and Jennifer M. Orozco are treated as the same person because their bios carry the same career text and ExecutiveGov names her 'Aquinas-Orozco'.
