OPFOR Journal has also become a significant part of my life. On average I have spent about 10 hours each week researching, writing, and editing each post, whether Weekly Significant Activity Reports covering a range of weekly events, Situation Reports on a specific topic, or monthly Homeland Security Briefs. That has meant a lot of late nights hunched over a laptop and more than a few days’ plans disrupted by my impulse to write. I am grateful to my wife Elin for always encouraging me to keep going. OPFOR Journal would simply not exist without her support.
