Being sexually frustrated is definitely a factor in some way. It's interesting to me that Nidal Malik Hasan would go around mosques trawling for a wife. Many Muslims in America - especially those...

I should also note that how often one frequents and posts on message boards is inversely related to how often one gets laid. Now that's scientific fact....etc.

Surely whether working men rebel is primarily related to whether they're getting laid. Now that is scientific fact. There's no real evidence for it; but it is scientific fact.

Cheers. I have someone very smart and talented on my FOB who handles my flights (just in case you're reading this, Riley). More a matter of having as many contacts as possible at Naray prior to...

This may sound strange to ask on a public forum, but I'm trying to get down there to spend time with the Cav squadron there, and with all our crazy comms, it can't hurt for me to ask here and save...

Cheers for all the replies, folks! Various PMs sent.

Ha! You may have tried hard to make my brain explode, but this still doesn't beat the infamous "spaghetti mind ####" designed by a USN aviator that's making the rounds in Kabul right now!

Cheers for all the feedback. Had a good talk this evening. The odds of getting everyone to sing off the same IO hymnsheet, though, remain very bleak.

Gentlemen,

It looks like I'll be briefing some people tomorrow on why the Taliban is kicking our backsides in the IO department. If any of you have any unconventional thoughts on the matter,...

Cheers!

Recently got back from six weeks of research in-theatre, including approx. half the time down south with a line inf. bn. Fascinating stuff. Michael C, you're quite right. I went out on a good number...

Gentlepersons (very PC),

I shall be spending a good amount of time in Afghanistan over the next year, researching company-level intelligence cells. I'll be working for the military, so I'm out to...

I'm afraid, that due to my limited expertise, it came down to either skyping or recording. We're starting Afghanistan on Tuesday, though. Back in time to 2001.



Actually, this is the result of...

(1) Intent. Provide exercise participants with a general feel for the experience their real-life counterparts would undergo. Provide a new frame...

Further to my course thread, here's a copy of part of the warno for the upcoming counterinsurgency exercise. More than 2/3 of participants are not from the class I'm teaching, so it's an event in its...

Love the nutty comment at the bottom.

For those wishing to skype in on the course, the new permanent skype ID is COINcourse. Make me a contact (or whatever the skype terminology is) and I'll include you in the conference call that starts...

I really look forward to seeing what you deliver. My brain just can't figure out how you'd do it.

I don't see how you can overcome the inherent limitations of browser-based programming without a...

Just to ballpark your ideas, what about this?

What graphical representations will you use? 3D? Stickmen?

Not to sound too harsh, but doesn't Virtual Battle Space already fit the description? If not, then surely the most efficient solution would be to contact the developers, Bohemia Interactive Australia...

Ooh, more, tell us more! I was taught the old estimate process and never used the 7 Q's. I must admit I assumed the 7 Q's were simply a more compact and equally effective version. Any chance you...

Adam,

Are you working off Sphere standards for actual implementation? Or are you talking purely standards of interagency co-operation? My guess is the latter, although the former would serve you...

Wow. Thank you very everyone for the lively responses. This is wonderful.



Go on. I'm keen to follow this Vietnam conversation through. What did you mean by "not really"? Sorry if my language...

Indeed.

Ken, as I suspected, we're actually singing off the same song sheet, here!

I remember taking a class on Vietnam during my second year of War Studies at the University of London. For a whole...
