After a short hiatus I am back! Last week got a little busy and but now I am back ready to write. I took the day off on Monday so sadly this week's blog will have no protester of the week. Hopefully next week they will really step up their game-my request would be for drums and possibly a flute or other woodwind instrument!
I used to fly helicopters for the Navy. Now I work at U.S. embassies to build our mutual security cooperation/defense relationships. I'm also reading a novel from every country in Africa (33 so far). I'm in the process of moving these over to a dedicated website: www.beyondachebe.com. Most of my non-africa book reviews are now over at www.kruzoo.blogspot.com

FAO Quotables
"But being right, even morally right, isn't everything. It is also important to be competent, to be consistent, and to be knowledgeable. It's important for your soldiers and diplomats to speak the language of the people you want to influence. It's important to understand the ethnic and tribal divisions of the place you hope to assist."
