Washington, D.C. – A frequently mentioned Rumsfeld’s Rule from Dwight Eisenhower states that, “Plans are worthless, but planning is everything.”  Always one to immerse himself and his staff in thoughtfully and carefully thinking through future scenarios, the Foundation is fortunate that Secretary Rumsfeld prepared its leadership to provide continuity and guidance in the wake of his passing.  

A man whose lifetime of public service began as a Naval aviator, Donald Rumsfeld died on June 29^th at the age of 88, surrounded by family at his home in Taos, New Mexico.
