Thanks for that material , holmes, interesting military-speak: things haven't changed much.
In Nam the brass learned that in future wars they should: 1) keep the media away from the action (unless they were first thoroughly (em)bedded and co-opted, and 2) keep the media away from the coffins coming home, although apparently they didn't learn much about fighting (or the wisdom of trying to fight) nationalistic "asymmetrical force" insurgencies.
No doubt when we invade Iran or Syria, digital cameras, cell phone cameras, camcorders, etc., will be prohibited. Problem solved.
