Official Canadian Army Science Fiction

So apparently SF author Karl Schroeder was retained by the Canadian Forces to write a speculative scenario of peacekeeping ops in 2025. It falls roughly in the same SF angle as Vernor Vinge's  Rainbows End (about which much more later) - the "we have lots of P.W. Singer's warbots, but humans are the ultimate self-organizing swarm." 

Most of it will never happen even inside a DARPA lab, much less deployably, but you should read it. It will get you outside the set of counterfactuals you currently possess.
