Another week away for work - this time back to my alma mater: the US Navy War College in Newport, Rhode Island. It was my first time back since I graduated, 11 years ago!

So many great things associated with the College but in particular it has led professional wargaming in the US Navy since 1863. Part of that tradition is the development of the famous "Fletcher Pratt" wargaming rules, and it was the location where the Rainbow War Plans were gamed out, including the ultimately war winning War Plan Orange in WW2.
Wonderful to visit and spend time in this facility.
I'm very privileged to be a proud alumnus
