As SLF, I would [ignorantly] guess that the VCC, being in an unfamiliar environment, spend a lot more time poring over the manuals than some of the supremely self-confident narcissist militants.
And BASSA would certainly seem to have issued a hint about where the next rabid dog-bite might be coming from ... so the VCC have been pre-warned.
Is this the next 'excuse' for IA, one wonders?
