An online journal of commentary, analysis, and dignified rants on national security issues. Other posts on home life, annoying things, and a vast 'other' are clearly marked.
I live and write in Ann Arbor, Michigan. University of Michigan AB and MA from Eastern Michigan University. One term in the Michigan Army National Guard. Former American history instructor and retired nonpartisan research analyst. I write on Blogger and Substack. Various military and private journals have published my occasional articles on military subjects. See "My Published Works" on the TDR web version or under the mobile version drop-down menu for citations and links.
As a Lions and Wolverines fan, I've had little enough to celebrate this year (the Wisconsin game was the second best game I've ever been at) on the football field. So here's hoping that Army beats Navy today in the classic rivalry that began 117 years ago.
