Yon: Military sources continue to provide information about MEDEVAC failures in Afghanistan. Top Army Generals say there are no complaints from the MEDEVAC/CASEVAC community in Afghanistan, but if that’s true then why do I end up with stacks of internal documents from dozens of sources?

A Rawalpindi think tank exposes Line of Departure as a nest of spies! Ali Chishti, hide! The dangerous foolishness of Pakistani clown Zaid Hamid today in LoD. Les sanglots longs des violons de l’automne.

Line of Departure makes good on a promise to do a Q&A with VA wunderblogger Alex Horton. SLTA! Strykers Lead the Way! And Michelle Malkin is kinda hot.

The PAOs and newspapers got it wrong. Let’s try to get two deaths in a bloody corner of Anbar, Iraq right six years later.

The USMC’s Peter Munson — AKA “Pete the Pirate” — has heaved grapples and is boarding the USS Chickensh**!!! Breathalyzer tests, Irish pennants and the dish on “mediocre, bureaucratic cowards.”

The Revolutionary Council in Homs comes to Nir Rosen’s defense. When is this going to end? He’s not a spy for the Syrian Baath. Quit being idiots.

Nir Rosen speaks out in his own defense. He deserves a fair hearing and I ask those enemies of his work to quit jumping to conclusions unless they have solid evidence to indict him.

One of the world’s bravest and smartest reporters, Nir Rosen, does an LoD Q&A. Yeah, we fight about stuff but if you’re not reading Nir then you’re really missing out on some of the best coverage of the Middle East and North Africa.

SMA’s proposed uniform changes are leaked to LoD. Tattoos, mustaches, roll pressing and more innovations designed to revamp how an Army looks and acts after more than a decade of war.
