A Better Peace: The War Room Podcast

This is an outstanding podcast for anyone interested in understanding modern events with some historical perspective. Ron Granieri is a fantastic host with a sultry voice that leaves me purring like a relaxed kitten while simultaneously exciting the listener like a teen at a Harry Styles concert with his profound knowledge of German military history. I highly recommend this podcast as a means to have a better understanding of the world around you and how events unfold.

This is an interesting and atypical topic for War Room. Having spent nearly 30 uniformed years in the Army and undergone several “new uniform” drills, I sympathize with the challenges of creating a product that inevitably engenders strong feelings on both sides. I take particular exception to the new Army service uniform cap which lacks the stiffener and thus looks like a misshapen frisbee rather than the headgear of a serious professional. Editorial comment: as I’ve told students at the SSC, CSC, and pre-commissions levels for decades, “use precise terms precisely.” What you described as “dress uniforms” are actually “service” uniforms, intended for daily wear in environments other than training or combat. “Dress uniforms” always have a bow tie, and are usually not worn before 1800 hours. Content correction: the Marines were the first to deviate from the universal woodland camouflage pattern, in 2003. The Army followed with its own digital experiment, the execrable ACU, which has thankfully gone the way of the dodo. Thanks—I look forward to the next cast. COL(R) Tom Hanson, PhD

Morell and a few of his IC colleagues told the world Hunter's laptop was russian propaganda. Turns out Morell and his pals lied in hopes of influencing a U.S. election. Everything he said since is filtered through that lie. Trust? lol...yeah, trust a veteran spook at your own peril, lol
