More than half of the Navy's casualties at Pearl Harbor were sustained aboard the USS Arizona, where 1100 men are still entombed.
We still remember them to this day, in passing we still render honors.
...and being blogged about over at PBS, no less. Mark Glaser at Media Shift on Project Valour-IT.
BTW - the goal was $180K. Currently the total is $230K, and still inching north.
Good on us all, bloggers and contributors alike! That will put the project in front of a "bluer' audience... and will show them some of us chickenhawks at least put our money where our blogs are, and take care of our own.
We ask for money, and convince you it's worth it. We don't make the IRS go take it from people... 8^)
"Um, Lieutenant, sir? Don't you think we've been driving a long time for a 10 mile road march?"
"Of course not, soldier! I've got the GPS. Keep heading southwest."
"Uh, yessir - but the road sign back there said..."
"Troop, I'm not going to tell you again - keep driving!"
"Yessir."
This is why we neep to keep maps and map-reading skillz, in addition to the nice gizmos. Snerk.
I did a little reading on this once upon a time. Courtesy of a rant at work, here's an incomplete list of things I've used to think about how organizations change.
Sunni majority countries in the Middle East also could become involved if the Shiite population inside Iraq lauched an ethnic cleansing program against the Sunnis, he said. If that were to happen, “I think that the Turks would not sit by idly if they saw Iraq beginning to fall apart,” Gates said. “So I think that you could have Saudi Arabia, you could have Turkey, Syria, Iran, all would be involved. We're already seeing Hezbollah involved in training fighters for Iraq.”The war on terror could be a generational effort, and all parties must agree on the general approach to the battle. “He said there needs to be broad agreement on a path forward in Iraq and in terms of how the U.S. fights the war on terror “so that we can carry on this struggle in a way that (the terrorists and extremists) don't think we're going to cut and run, that they don't think we're going to walk away from this war on terrorism, and so that they don't think it's going to be easy to start attacking us here at home because we're not willing to take them on abroad.”
Opening up my AKO e-mail, I found this.
I think it is safe to say that we are seeing some improvement by CENTCOM and their work with bloggers...
