Subject: That's why Saint Reagan did it then
When St Reagan invaded Grenada, it was still hurricane season. Why did he rush the schedule?

Mosied over to the Library, to borrow their DVD of "Wag The Dog", before the thought police confiscate it.

One bit of dialog I picked up was a reminder of the date of the Marine barracks in Beirut being blown up, and over 200 of our guys being killed, after St Reagan sent them there, to cover Israel's flank: October 23, 1983

The invasion of Grenada was October 25, 1983.

iirc, the troops used to invade Grenada had been on their way elsewhere, and were quite suddenly rerouted to do the Grenada op.

Steve....hail diversions from bad news.
