Drill Sergeant Peffer at BWE from You Served Radio & Blog on Vimeo.
The US Army had a very popular booth at Blog World Expo again this year and one reason it was popular was because of a pair of Drill Sergeants that were there. Drill Sergeant Peffer was one of those guys who challenged attendees to do pull-ups and push-ups in order to get a Go Army T-shirt or Water Bottle. It was the hardest SWAG to get from a booth on the expo floor but many were lined up take on the challenge for a T-shirt. This interview provides a little background about Army Strong Stories and gives insight as to why the Army comes to BWE.

Yesterday I was able to spend some one on one time with famed Producer Mark Burnett. Mark has produced hit shows like The Eco-Challenge, Survivor, Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader and The Apprentice. His latest venture is Sara Palin’s Alaska. Mark stopped by the Milblog Track panels yesterday at Blog World Expo to show us the very first public showing of this new show. We were able to watch the first 15 minutes of the first episode. I can tell you from what I saw I think it will be a hit show. Mark was involved with many, many more shows. You should check out the list of productions he has been involved with on his Wiki page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Burnett.
Mark was also a former British Para member and fought some hard, yet almost unknown battles in the Falkland Islands. When he talked about that to us at the milblog track he quickly became very emotional. A little about that battle can be found at http://www.hmforces.co.uk/Training/articles/1834-the-falklands-conflict-part-5—battles-of-goose-green-stanley.
