Just wanted to point out that his blog is not closing, just changing - and for the better IMO.
Wilf, that's a good idea. The council is THE place to be!

Well you'd think, but good and cool as we are, we are pretty short on the high-profile "foot-note" folks. Sure we have Gian Gentile, Tom Odom, Rob, and Cav, but I haven't seen Steve Metz for a while for example, and the names frequently mentioned in the "COIN" debate seem to want to stay clear - otherwise they'd be here.
SWC is exceptionally well policed and monitored and the level of behaviour is excellent, so nothing to fear there.
We are also blessed with a whole raft of basically world-class but lesser known thinkers, too numerous to mention and I think they keep this place very honest indeed, and they are usually are not very deferential to folks here unless they can hold their own.

- The job of the British Army out here is to kill or capture Communist Terrorists in Malaya.
- If we can double the ratio of kills per contact, we will soon put an end to the shooting in Malaya.
