Purely for information, am I to understand that the following are indicative of the normall HTT mission, and can anyone tell me why they do not fall under the normal G2 staff and Provost Marshall responsibilities?
Garcia — was working to make himself an expert on the theft of goods from military convoys, interviewing drivers and others to figure out what was stolen, why and where.
Ridenour — was working to become the team’s expert on the local economy, tracking the price Afghan locals paid for cooking oil, flour and other staples.
...and...
Meanwhile, Bhatia was zeroing in on his own line of research — gauging the insurgency by tracking attacks not on the military, but on local leaders who were combatants’ rivals for power.
Additionally, from whom did these people receive their tasking? Someone other than G2?
