Australian War Memorial defers military history prize after judging panel awards it to book on Ben Roberts-Smith Exclusive: Governing council ‘retrospectively’ decides the Les Carlyon literary award should go only to first-time authors, ruling out Chris Masters’ book

A long-ish thread on this scandal and why it's so bad, which military historians and people interested in historiography may find interesting even if you're not Australian.

¿Por qué la región entre Zamora, León y Ourense arde tanto?
No, no es para construir aerogeneradores, ni por ninguna de las teorías conspiranoicas que estamos leyendo. La explicación es más compleja… y menos cómoda para quienes buscan respuestas simples. 1/13

Unsurprisingly u go to X or WhatsApp group and there u have Spanish gamers complaining about wokeism on the part of Devir. I'm constantly disappointed by the lack of empathy and sensitivity of my fellow citizens when it comes to cultural/ethnic diversity.

Designed by James Buckley, "Battlegroup Clash: Baltic" is a tactical ground combat #wargame -- focused on the NATO defense of Estonia against Russia. My favorite part is how transmission/C2 & the risk of being targeted are linked.

Our colleagues at MdG are compiling a Google Map of all stores that carry wargames. If you know of any, please share the store's Google profile link in the comments so they can add it to the database.

But I also think u r right the nomination is the prize and I think it does a good job at visualising games like Arabian Struggle, SNAFU designs, etc.

I fully agree. This is sillier than Eurovision song contest, where at least voters have seen all performances. I doubt anybody has played all games in each category they vote for.

Does it matter? I would argue it very much does.
That is the most undisciplined/"fuck it" attitude I' ever seen in a military parade by a country mile. It made me cringe constantly while watching.
They didn't give enough of a damn to respect the moment and/or their commanders were too uncaring to keep them looking polished for a public event of that extraordinary significance.
And I don't blame them.

This parade review from a former member of the 3rd US Infantry Regiment pulls no punches.
