Army paid 7 million for one day of training

I'm all for boosting the strength and role of fathers in the family..but this is absurd. I'm sure Patty Murry has her hands all over this Seattle based Halliburton-esk effort.

That’s right — all of this cash is for training. Loving Families Loving Children Inc. won’t design or produce any special software to keep moms, wives and kids in touch with their SEALs, nor any fancy platforms to run it on. It’ll instead design “resiliency assessment analysis, workshops and training programs.” The crunchy-sounding company gets $9,380,746 for designing such courses through 2012, with an option to extend till 2016.

Quotes

At a certain stage the realization strikes through that one must either live outside of society's bonds or die of absolute boredom. There is no future or freedom in the circumscribed life and the only other life is complete rejection of the rules. There is no longer room for the soldier of fortune or the gentleman adventurer who can live both within and outside of society. Today it is all or nothing. To save my own sanity I chose the nothing.
