After Action Report With American Soldier

In this terribly audible video, we interview American Soldier blogger Matt. This interview was conducted in the lobby at the end of the conference, so the audio is overmodulated and very noisy. But, it’s still recognizable so we’re posting it!

Panel #4 – 2009 Milblog Conference

This panel is titled “The New Media Agora”. This one of the more popular panels in my opinion, which was odd considering it was the last and people were getting tired. What is the impact of the “new media” on issues concerning national security, military doctrine and concept development, training, education, and lessons learned? A discussion of the issue by those at the frontlines of the debate by Moderator, Greyhawk of Mudville Gazette; Andrew Exum of Abu Magawama, Bill Nagle of Small Wars Journal, Bill Roggio of The Long War Journal.

This is a bit long, so it may take awhile to download.
