What military did Higgins serve in and what was his rank when he retired?

What was Thomas Magnum's pistol of choice?

We used this excuse in the aughts and beyond for not taking action against their underground facilities. IOW it was "we don't have the munitions." They have to breath, eat and drink. Destroying ventilation ducts and entrances; we knew where they were and what was going in and out was...

Excellent.

Conceptually, to combat cartels and FTOs it's a good idea. Practically, as the article notes, it apparently increases money, people, assets, etc. Efficiency is not gained by increases; it's realized by reduced budgets, people and focused priorities. DEA and ATF are not alone in this. I've...

He'll be encased in clay himself and guard the tomb forever.

Quite the opposite. For decades the finances of the federal gov't had as a key operating principle the "pass through." If X amount was allocated to Y federal agency, a certain amount was passed through to either another federal agency or a contractor or both. This is how THEM were enriched...

... and apparently our interest in building hardened shelters went away when the Berlin Wall fell. Common sense went away, too.
