bastards ....I wonder if Rudy's security firm that deals with terrorists subscribes to it?

Publisher’s Mission and Vision

Serviam’s mission is to provide accurate and actionable information about private sector solutions to promote global stability. We address users and consumers of private goods and services in the humanitarian relief, national development, security and military sectors; government and private providers of such goods and services; and government entities involved in decisions that determine or influence trends in this growing industry.

The magazine shares useful information and provokes thoughtful dialogue about complex global security and stability problems, such as:

* maintaining stability and security in the aftermath of natural and man-made catastrophes;
* delivering humanitarian relief to victims of poverty, conflict and disaster;
* deterring and responding to domestic and international terrorist threats;
* providing force and mission augmentation and logistics in hot conflicts; and
* innovating and developing technologies and training to ensure mission success.

Blackwater Alumni

The new Blackwater Alumni Association would like to invite you to join what will become one of the most important and far-reaching tools used to keep the Blackwater family connected and informed. During the next several months, we will be conducting a new membership push and can use your help to spread the word. The Blackwater Alumni Association is attempting to reach those who have trained here, those employed here and those who were once employed here and left in good standing. Blackwater's executive staff also reserves the right to authorize membership to other persons considered to be a part of the Blackwater family.

As the Blackwater Alumni Association grows, you will find programs and opportunities to be involved including projects of good will and the chance to participate in alumni-exclusive events. In the near future, an annual Blackwater Alumni Association shooting tournament will be announced, limited to association members.

As a charter member, you will receive:
#
A subscription to SERVIAM , a bi-monthly private contracting industry magazine
#
A monthly Alumni newsletter available at the Blackwater Alumni Association website (www.blackwateralumni.com) bringing Blackwater news to its family
#

#
A current training course calendar
#
E-mail alerts with sign-up at www.blackwateralumni.com
