The forums aren't as active as they once were, but some good stuff is still happening via this site. It seems several folks who were involved in Somalia have contributed during recent months, there are contacts for people who want to send packages to deployed soldiers, etc...
It's also been a good place for discussion of further operations in the Middle East -- I know I've learned a fair amount, especially from people who have BTDT and know what the heck they're talking about.[/quote]
Apparently, the people that knew what they were talking about didn't frequent the thread I started.
If everybody talked about Somalia, posted similar threads, similar topics that fit one category, what would be the point of making posts here if people are board with that topic? If everybody agreed on everything?
Now, I'm not saying that we should not talk about Somalia. I do believe that those that have served there should come together. They should be able to make sure that Somalia doesn't become a forgotten conflict.
And this is how I see the miscellaneous discussions of any forum. The miscellaneous discussions forum is a place for posts like the one that started this thread. It's something different for people that want a change of pace from the other forums.
