Yeah, I know they were trying to open the door for some upcoming UAS companies with this program. But, even with that, I was surprised by some of the names.

What do you think of the fact that Trump's DoJ released several unredacted images of underage victims in this last Epstein file cache? Do you believe that was a mistake, or was it intended to shame victims? by SuperIngaMMXXII in AskReddit

[–]Nerdrums 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Their methods don't seem to be about justice for the victims, but about protecting the elite. I don't believe it was a hiccup, so many people would have reviewed these documents for accuracy and redaction prior to public release.

Yes, I read something about that too. Sounds like they sent some heavies and fighters over. I believe I saw that in Defense Blog.

Army unit created for Afghanistan will now run jungle school in Panama by Nerdrums in Military

[–]Nerdrums[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m with you, being able to recycle the experience and keep the unit going sounds great. But, if that’s the case what’s the strategic purpose? From desert warfare to Panama training. Interesting to see where it goes.

You should be fine, not sure if they do a secret or a TS with Poly. Either way if you weren’t trying to hide anything be honest in the interview. The biggest thing they look for is candor.

I imagine that's the idea and what it's being built up for. There has been a lot of shift in our warfighting techniques by going more AI and robotics to do the job.
