SIG SAUER - Never Settle

Our 1000th Post

Kinda hard to believe that we have produced 1000 official posts. Actually there have been a few others but for one reason or another no longer reside on the site. So this is it, 1000 posts.

To celebrate this auspicious occasion we want to put in a plug for an upcoming movie starring George Clooney, Ewan McGregor, Jeff Bridges, Kevin Spacey, and Goat entitled “The Men Who Stare At Goats”. Based on the book of the same name by author Jon Ronson, the story follows elements of the US Army during the 1980s as they attempted to harness new age philosophies and paranormal phenomenon for military use. The story is fascinating and what’s even more interesting is that it is true. Obviously, the movie will assume a certain amount of poetic license and the book in my opinion takes a few liberties as well, but the base story is true and documented many places. In fact, the conceptual First Earth Battalion’s manual can be found online here.

“The Men Who Stare At Goats” premiers November 6th.
