And a real new one by Kurt Jacobsen in Logos, Got No Culture: Anthropology confronts Counterinsurgency.

Thanks very much Tim, I have just started reading it, much appreciated.

I just found this one too:
Department of Defense Civilian Carries on Marne Legacy
about a man serving in a Human Terrain Team in Iraq. A very plain article, but this part was interesting, even if the same fact has been repeated with some frequency:
“…I’m obviously not an interpreter – I don’t have any language skills…”
Tim Stevens
Hehe. A stroke of genius (if it weren’t so tragic). I vaguely remember seeing a US military stat a year or so ago, detailing the linguistic capabilities of serving officers in Iraq. I believe the number who could speak Kurdish was … one.
Maximilian Forte
This reminds me of something, and I cannot remember the source (in 1983), it may have been TIME or another mainstream media source: when U.S. ships were approaching Grenada for the invasion, one officer was quoted as wondering if they had any interpreters on board. That Grenadians speak English was news to him.
Tim Stevens
I wish I could say, “That’s unbelievable!”, but I can’t. It’s a bit like ITV news in the UK putting subtitles up for Anglophone Indians, etc. I’m sure you’ve seen the subtitling spoof of insurgents on YouTube (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=xv1gka1KtrM).
Maximilian Forte
I’ll watch that, thanks very much Tim!
