Ronn: I for one have friends in uniform who may be over there already, or who may be going over there in the near future. Anyone else?
Me: Yeah, I've had the fairly amusing experience of trying to get into contact with a friend of mine who used to be a member of Delta (Well, he always says he was involved with "The Unit", but he's pretty clear about what he means) and, very much not to my surprise, finding out that he is well and truly out of touch. My boss is a former Green Beret and says that an astonishing number of his old buddies are "out of the house" when he calls their homes. There are some pretty good reports that we've had special ops guys on the ground in Afghanistan since September 13, actually, and I think that's fairly likely. Gautam
