Interesting Soldier's blog

Course, they're attempting to control the flow of information, to control perceptions. There seems to be some other subterfuge, trying to smoke us out, shut us down, but you know what? It's a big-ass Internet... and my grasp of language is disproportionate to my ambition. Bottom line is, basically if you ain't passing out Teddy Bears or soccer balls to war orphans, DOD doesn't want to hear about it.

1. Whoa. He's reliving Catch-22.

Ot at least his LT thinks he is.

Disturbing.

2. Odd

His posts are written in a realtime voice, as if he's posting from Iraq. But the sidebar says he's not in Iraq, not in the Army, not getting shot at.

3. I saw that, and assume it's a disclaimer to attempt to stop them

from tracking him down or something, given that there are comments like this in the blog:

I'm on one of these late night hacking binges, bent over my keyboard and thrashing away as silently yet as quickly as I know how, and it strikes me. The absurdity of it. Here I am, a thousand miles from the 21st century, shouting into the future as it were, ducking and dodging and weaving, applying all manner of subterfuge and plausible deniability and pseudonyms and cutouts and middlemen and intermediaries to do my dirty work for me, flying across the wires, around the globe and back again across time and space... not even censoring enlisted men's letters. Censoring my very existence.

5. Yes, I think that's the case.

He'd better use some encryption to CYA. Accessing a friendly webmail account through HTTPS could do the trick. PGP mail would be better.

I very much doubt he registered himself at blogspot.com.

4. "the federal prison system known colloquially among the inmates,...

,...as us arhhhhhhhhme,..."

Wow! His writing reflects a feeling of torment, to me.
