- Comment: A natural nomination for Veterans Day/Armistice Day, November 11th. Plenty long enough, fully cited. I have already lined up the ALTs, because Lair is fascinating, and I have a feeling he is going to attract ALTs. He reminds me so much of Lawrence of Arabia—except Lair's espionage career lasted a lot longer and raised a larger guerrilla force. Then too, Lair trained Thai policemen into Special Forces. And...and...and.
