« The Role of the Death Penalty | Main | The Red Sox Secret Revealed » December 16, 2004Tactical PauseMy apologies for the lack of posting of late, but I have been moved into a battalion S3 position (that's the battalion's operations and training officer). It's a training battalion, not a tactical battalion, but there's still a great deal of work to be done, because the Army keeps throwing new tasks at us before we can complete the previous ones. Right now we're still trying to validate the training of the 29th BCT so they can deploy to Iraq, but an armor company from Vermont has arrived and we have to start training them on Saturday. This means that I'm currently about two loops back in the OODA(Observe-Orient-Decide-Act) chain with little hope of catching up any sooner than this weekend when we start training. I've got a lot of ideas percolating about Social Security, Iraq, the DC baseball team and the Cabinet, but I can't promise when I'll have time to put pixels to screen. On the plus side, there will be another good reason to visit very soon...Posted at December 16, 2004 11:31 AM
Comment policyI apologize for only allowing authenticated commenters, but comment spam overwhelms the site if I don't use those measures to prevent it. I reserve the right to delete any comment, although generally comments will only be deleted due to use of profanity or personal attacks on people. I have no objection to vigorous argument, but when name-calling begins, I'm putting a stop to it. In the immortal words of Eugene Levy, "People, people, let's stop this before somebody says something untrue!" If you want to call people names, I recommend you get your own blog. Trackback PingsTrackBack URL for this entry: CommentsIf you have any contacts in the administration, you could let them know that I am still available for the cabinet. What they need in there is a good liberal with some military experience and some other traits that I have, but will not disclose until after I am announced. Posted by: Scott at December 16, 2004 12:06 PM If you are training a Vermont armor company then I am guessing that you are at Fort Bliss. That company is from my brother battalion. My former battalion is currently at Camp Shelby, MS. Train 'em hard! Bruce R. (Retired) Posted by: Bruce at December 17, 2004 05:15 AM You're right, we're at Bliss. We'll do our best to get them ready. Posted by: Andrew at December 17, 2004 05:21 AM Post a commentThanks for signing in, . Now you can comment.
