#6 So, is this swamp rat retiring or just going back to State? My $'s on the latter.

#11 The fifth top official in seven days to leave or announce their departure. Who are the other four? Is there a pattern?

#12 She doesn't look like a "Tina" to me.

#13 Those include the Dec. 12 notification that top Asia policy official Randall Schriver would leave after two years on the job, the Dec. 13 announcement that top official in charge of personnel and readiness Jimmy Stewart had resigned after taking the role in October 2018 the Tuesday report that Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency leader Steven Walker will leave in January, and the news earlier Wednesday that Principal Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence Kari Bingen submitted her resignation on Dec. 5 and will leave Jan. 10.

#14 Not DoD but certainly another Swamp Thing: Ambassador William Taylor to Resign.

Get 'em all outta here.

#15 Did these people who are resigning have some of those special lucrative relationships with defense industry lobbyists or just normal turnover? Swamp-dwellers??

#17 ..I understand its sort of a standard cut at the Pentagon barber shop, though a bit long in the back.

#19 Pic search suggests BIG change in appearance between roughly 2005 and 2010. Big like, "Hotei to full belly-backbone Buddha," "taking up marathon running and veganism" or "wasting away from dread disease." I'm guessing health was an issue.
