Guerilla Warfare and Librarian Spies

Lee Hadden writes: \” The Wall Street Journal has a front page article in the Feb 26th issue
by Chip Cummins \”A Mistaken Shooting Puts Army War Games Under Tough
Spotlight,\” and refers to war games played in central North Carolina in the
mythical country of \”Pineland.\” Army teams go in to either support or
subvert the mythical republic by meeting with locals, some of who
participate in the games as either pro-Pinelands or anti-Pinelands agents.

The local librarian in Ramseur, NC, carries secret coded messages tucked
away in a copy of a Dr. Seuss book. \”Yes, Sam I am, I can topple Pineland,
yes I can…\”

In the first horrible accident in a number of years, several soldiers
thought the local policeman who caught them riding in the back of a local
pickup truck with a local supporter was also in with the game, and the
armed soldiers were killed when they resisted arrest.\”
