Thread: Today I want to talk about remarkable coincidences. #AUKUS
I decided to look up the Australian Govt's Submarine Advisory Committee. It was active once so I thought I see if it still was.
Yep it is active and new members were appointed in May 2021....strange.

Strange that I didn't see a press release about these appointments.
Even stranger when last time around some members were getting $600+K to sit on it.
But there it is, govt directory 👇 says SAC had 3 good folks recently appointed to it.

I decided to check out Kirkland H Donald's CV given the previous $600+K contract was given to him.
I assume the recent SAC listing is a transcription error - but who knows.
Anyway Kirkland H Donald is Chair of the Board at
Huntington Ingalls Industries.

By now you're thinking it might be time for another coincidence, so I'll play along and give you one.
You see Huntington Ingalls also has a division in Newport News Shipbuilding....they build naval ships....and naval submarines.
Virginia class submarines, no less.

They'd be one of the same submarine classes that are under active consideration by the Australian govt for their #AUKUS pandering.

Anyway it's such a small and coincidental world.
Just be happy we are getting super quiet nuclear submarines...at some point.
And we are in a "forever partnership".
All good.
But anyway what are you gonna do?
