    Like all slightly cheesy scifi – good things all aliens speak (and write) in English (unless t’s a cookbook)

    Well, given that McClellan had trouble finding his own backside with both hands and a road map, it’s rather fitting that McClellan’s most lasting legacy was his design for a saddle that had a hole in the middle of the seat.

    Let’s hope Earth doesn’t do what General Gamelin did when two Nazi officers crash landed behind French lines with the German invasion plans.

    “To Serve Man”, was an instruction book from a Twilight Zone episode. Turns out it was a cook book!

    He does a fair number of alternate history stories as well. In fact, some of his parallel world stories are also alternate histories.

    So history does repeat itself, first as tragedy (Antietam) then as farce (Lio)

    I foresee courts-martial for the alien courier and for their uniform maker. The question is, what will Lio do with this intel?

    Or it might be like the invasion plan Ian Flemming “lost” in WWII (See “THe Man Who Never Was”)

    This reminds me of the civil war story about the soldier who found a cigar case in a field and in the case there were three cigars and Lee’s secret plans for the next attack on the Union army. The plans made it all the way to General Grant, the three cigars didn’t.
