Why does it seem to be that those who 'encourage' war actions, generally are those who have 1. never worn a uniform, 2. never served in combat, 3. love to play arm-chair generals, 4. throw other people's children under the war-bus but never 'theirs'. Arghhh.
Great advice. You have been busy today.
Congrats on the MEPC board position.

Good advice. As long as we remember the Maine, perhaps we should not forget the USS Chesapeake , either?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Chesapeake_(1799)
