WNU Editor: This is actually not an accurate number. I only put a counter on this blog a few years after I had started blogging, so I probably reached this milestone two or three years ago. Still .... it is good to see the over two million mark (3.0 million page views) .... a milestone that I originally thought was never going to be reached.
The reason why is simple .... I only started this blog to (1) work on my English, and (2) to keep current on international news and events that had a military angle. What I never expected was to be exposed to a community that is exciting, interesting, informative, and making a difference on issues that range from national security, international politics, and to the future of our armed forces.
If I have had a regret, it is that I do not have the time to research and write on topics and stories that no one else is covering. I am involved in other projects .... and juggling everything is sometimes very difficult. But I love what I do on this blog .... and every morning when I wake up I am eager and hungry to learn more, and to post what I discover on War News Updates.
I have many individuals and web sites to thank in making this a successful blog in the milblog community .... too many to list and waaaayyyyy too many too acknowledge. Suffice it to say that you know who you are .... and trust me .... I am always surprised, humbled, and honored to receive your attention.
