This week we are joined by Alcon S2 (@alcon.s2), a New Zealand based intelligence page dedicated to covering the INDO-PACIFIC area of responsibility (AOR). Alcon S2 and I reference our time as analysts in the Pacific theater to discuss:

- Chinese expansion under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)

- Interoperability between FVEY (AUS, CAN, US, UK, NZ) 

- Conventional warfare in the Pacific 

- and fun personal stories in the military
