We're approaching the one month mark, and the U.S. government remains in shutdown. As we come upon the Novermber 4th election day, many wonder if we'll see a resolution. Additionally, news has broken of a suspected terror attack here in Michigan, planned to take place on Halloween. As always, the Sunday SITREP is the opportunity for me to share my thoughts and insights on current events, and provide some commentary that may help you fill in the gaps on what's going on, what's already happened, and what we may see next. Theres a whole lot going on in the world, and the SITREP is my way of bringing some critical events to the forefront of the discussion.

Conversations here delve into the tangible aspects of preparation-from practical planning and responsible training to personal accountability-framed within the broader context of our current society and culture.
