the exchange program sounds so cute too, like are we meeting because of geopolitical reasons, or because our names being the same is hilarious? … maybe both?
It is absolutely one hundred percent because their names are the same and for no other reason.
And it has gotten sort of interesting when Georgia-the-country was kind of at war for a bit, and the US was officially Not Involved, and the Georgia National Guard was like, We are super supportive emotionally and are happy to give you advice and such but we really are not allowed to do more than thumbs-up in nonspecific support from a distance, so like, sorry guys. The great state of Georgia has no authority to make war on its own.
I guess a lot of other US states have similar kinds of deals where their National Guard gets to do mentorship kind of things with other militaries or whatever? But Georgia is special because they have their own coincidental twin. I don’t really know.
(Specifically, my brother in law is military police and has been advising them on that particular branch of military specialty, so that’s why he’s been going.)
