Done deal.
As to looking into my crystal ball:
The {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}} (which will be a {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}} unit) will locate to {{snip}}, {{snip}}, or maybe Ft. {{snip}} or Ft. {{snip}}... and the {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}}, currently out of {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}}) will {{snip}} within {{snip}}.
Update 04/05/2007: This morning I received an email from {{**snip**}}. The email said
{{**snip**}}Why whomever it is didn't call me direct or, since they know where I work, call my boss, I don't know.
"The below website has a short snippet on the {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}}, specifically regarding {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}}, which I know for a fact is close held info at present. I'm wondering what type of clearance review this type of thing must undergo? The author works at LANTAREA, Peter Stinson."
And, I find it interesting what the writer took issue with. The {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}} issue as posted is mostly prognosticating on my part. Perhaps I came close to the truth. The FORCECOM/OPCOM issue actually was close hold and not prognosticating on my part and, was, at the time, likely over the line.
Just goes to show something about rice bowls, I guess. And something about the level of transparency within the Coast Guard. We are truly not an organization that promotes or encourages transparency. As I noted in an email to {{**snip**}}, Admiral Allen is losing that battle.
Nonetheless, I have censored -- see {{snip}}s above -- the original post. For those who are truly interested, I'm sure there's a version of the original out there in cyberspace.
And, in the mean time, I have decided to not post anything here related at all to the Coast Guard. Maybe I'll just have to start another blog and post subversively and anonymously... ;-)
Update 04/06/2007: Portions of the above redacted with {{**snip**}}. Not much more to be said.
Update #2 04/06/2007: The first redaction today was a result of an email received. Following receipt of even another email, more portions of the above redacted with {{ **snip** **snip** **snip**}}. Fairly soon, this post is going to look like a document provided by the federal government under a FOIA request.
