Chet, whom I write about in BFA, is an intense fellow who lives and breathes national security like few people you'll meet. He's also more systematic in his thinking on the subject of military strategy than anyone I've ever heard speak, and I've heard a lot.

Most interestingly, Chet's opinions change, and he's awfully transparent about that, which is why he should probably blog (unless he's doing it already) because that sort of sharing is invaluable (you want your kids to read, then read in front of them [modeled behavior] and if you want readers who strategize, then display your strategizing [warts and all] in front of them).

Here's Chet's (first?) review of BFA. As is his way, Chet has many likes and plenty of dislikes, delivered in his usual, systematic way. Not surprisingly, he likewise guesses what a Vol III is naturally about.

I will review this review, along with others, in the coming weeks. For now I just provide the link: http://www.d-n-i.net/dni_reviews/blueprint_for_action.htm
