Some of the Component CIOs are :

Army: Chief Information Officer/G-6 LTG Susan S. Lawrence

Navy: Department of the Navy Chief Information Officer Terry Halvorsen

Marine Corps: Brigadier General Kevin J. Nally, Deputy Chief Information Officer (Marine Corps) - the Marine Corps falls under the Department of the Navy so Gen Nally is the senior USMC person in a CIO role

Air Force: Lt Gen William T. Lord, Chief of Warfighting Integration and Chief Information Officer

NSA: Lonny Anderson, Director of NSA Technology Directorate, CTO and CIO, National Security Agency

Veterans Affairs: Roger Baker, CIO, Veterans Affairs

This list is not comprehensive - there are other DOD components and of course these change with time so this is just a snapshot at one point in time.
