US Army LTC John Nagl interviewed on the Daily Show by Jon Stewart. Nagl is author of “Learning to eat soup with a knife” (which I sheepishly admit I have not read) is a very well regarded look at our military and counterinsurgency. What I really loved about this was both men played it straight down the middle, professional discussion, even with some humor at the end. H/T to Small Wars Journal where they have it featured prominently.
The Nagl money quote from the interview:
Be polite...........Be professional.............Be prepared to kill...................Good advice for here too
(Jon Stewart thought he meant NYC, I think he meant the Daily Show)
