Archaeologists and soldiers, well I suppose they have digging trenches in common.
And digging graves. Or opening them up. Otoh they also have the discipline of repetitive action and drills and at the level the article is discussing; they also are generally willing to follow orders and guidance without a clash of Princeton-like egos.
It's a good program for them and as two historians; I conclude you, like I, support the effort to enrich the field.
