Admiral Mike Mullen, who is the highest ranking military officer in the U.S. Armed Forces, has just joined Twitter at @thejointstaff – maybe his boss @BarackObama convinced him.

Admiral Mullen is currently touring India & Pakistan with Richard Holbrooke as part of US’ Af-Pak policy.
Yet another high for Twitter.

What is he going to Tweet about? We are sending couple of thousand more troops here and there? Will wait and see how he is going to manage the new media.

He isn’t following @BarackObama, his own boss. :) Is it politics? Or it’s all good PR? Should we expect presidential directives via tweets?
