Venezuela

Additional clarity? The career FSO types that remain at State must be pulling their hair out in frustration. (How would Ambassador Kate Wyler handle all this?)

Probably by finding some tall, dark foreign attache and getting freaky with him to make her husband jealous.

Contrary to what some believe, TV characters aren’t necessarily the best guides for “WWYD…” type situations.

My wife and I do enjoy watching The Diplomat on Netflix though.
 
Good post about Growler involvement in this operation . . .
I believe one of those destroyed this…

THU flies UH-60 and Bell 429 helicopters now; their then-fleet of Bell 412 and Bell 407 aircraft were fully divested several years ago. Fun story: other LEO organizations fly several of their old 407s and at least one 412 made its way north of the border to be used by a logging company. THU really seem to like their new birds and I can say (having seen them fly in person day and night) that they are some of the best UH-60 pilots in the world, especially around the ship. Absolute professionals and very nice folks.
THU?
