Worlds collide: I am going to a meeting at the Pentagon this afternoon. The written product being briefed during this meeting was largely developed by another contributor to the blog. Another participant in the meeting is a frequent and prominent poster on SWJ. Yet another participant knows one more of our contributors through work that they've done together on a stability operations study.
Small world.

Aww, you're just showing off, now... .
ReplyDeleteOh, who am I kidding? For reasons unknown to myself - baffling and sort of out of character, really - I have been sucked into the COIN blog vortex. I don't get it, either.

Small world indeed.
ReplyDeleteGuess what the following individuals have in common...
- My roommate at Airborne School
- My "cadet XO" when when I was a "cadet CO"
- A guy in my squad all through IOBC
- A guy in my squad through all 3 phases of Ranger School
- A fellow PL in my first Rifle Company (prior to OIF)
- A PL who lived 50 meters from me in Iraq (even though we were in different Divisions)
The thing they all have in common? They're all the same person.
Kind of a funny added twist: we looked alike so many people couldn't tell us apart and our last names sounded alike.
I'm reminded, strangely, of Ghostbusters: don't cross the streams?
