I was quite relieved to learn that I wasn't the honored guest they were expecting, of course! Yeah, I thought that was very interesting.

And I wouldn't say he was bragging -- it took a few hours of sweet-talking to loosen him up. :-) I'd be pretty surprised if he dropped in here, but you never know. I just now did a search and found a web page in which he's quoted about a weapons cache found in Afghanistan in April 2003. (Of course, I searched for his real name and not "Joe.")

Gripping, really. I don't know if Joe will use your info to come join us all here on your blog, but I'd love to hear his apparently very pragmatic opinion about whatever unexpected thing that happens next. My immediate thought was that he must be bragging at you -- someone with that much data doesn't generally want to share it with some guy on a flight home. But then again, I thought, you must hit a point where you don't feel like the basics of your job are worthy of cloak-and-dagger classification anymore. Moreover, it sounds like he had quite a photo album. Whatever the case, it's fascinating. Sounds like this guy was the real deal, and therefore far more interesting to all of us than ANY of us would likely ever be to him.
