One day...
One day, it wasn't as well received as I thought.
They made me a briefer.
I was the personal briefer for an 06, an army colonel.
He was the highest ranking intelligence officer in Afghanistan.
And I was his personal briefer.
So at the end of every 12-hour shift, I would give him a briefing.
And they selected me for that role just because in my civilian career,
You know, I give briefings, right?
We don't call it that, but they thought, okay, that's what we'll do.
But one day I had this idea that I'm going to give this briefing without reading my notes.
So at the end of every 12-hour shift, I would brief him.
We call them SIGACs.
I don't know if that's a broad term in the military, significant acts.
So SIGACs, the significant acts during the day.
And I would prepare a report for him.
This is everything that happened.
We had this happen in Helmand.
We had this in Kandahar.
We lost this number of the United States military in this incident or this battle.
