MilBlogs TV: The Surge

[Greyhawk]

The trailer for the next MilBlogs TV production debuted in The Dawn Patrol today. (I think it makes an interesting short video by itself - but obviously I'm biased.)

The actual Surge series won't focus on the war on the home front depicted in the trailer, by the way. But with newly declassified documents, a green light to share some first-hand knowledge, and a large video collection to draw from I think many of the folks involved in that debate would benefit from viewing the final product.

By the way, if you read Mudville via rss it's likely you've been missing the Dawn Patrol. Since our last major site re-design it has actually been a separate blog, although both appear side by side on Mudville's front page. And if you miss the Dawn Patrol, you miss out on a lot of fine milbloggers reporting from downrange (and elsewhere.)

As always, adjust size to your specs.

No Fun For The Marines

[LT Nixon]

Apparently, some business owners in Wilmington, NC don't want the Marines hanging around because they're afraid fights and drunken shenanigans are going to break out. This kind of reminds me of the "Dogs and Sailors Keep Off The Grass" signs you hear about from Norfolk during WWII, except Snopes isn't going to dispute the most recent evidence.
