Goodwin

As I rewatch last nights episode, something strikes me
 
 
Goodwin said he was in the peace corps.  Was that a lie?  But then the knife the others had was army
 
Are we getting hints of a miltary presence on the island?

I thought about that also, and the comments from Lenny in the psych ward about them hearing the numbers when they were in the Navy and were posted in the S. Pacific... lots of military tie in...

I'm beginning to think that the island was used for military experiments and that the experiments and people were abandonded. As "new blood" is introduced to the island the experiment somehow continues unchecked. Just a thought.

But then this might be a somewhat recent experiment.  Goodwin isnt that old.  (mid thirties maybe)  unless they on that weird aging thing from Dharma
 
But that Army knife looked shiny and new...so the government must still be supplying things.
 
I am starting to agree with those that think there is more than one group of others.  More along the lines or 2-3 groups (not including our fronties and tailies)

First of all I just felt really old when it said "Doesn't make any more" and 'twenty years old" and my thought was the WWII connection, then realized 20 years was 1985.... THAT'S NOT OLD!!!... LOL  I'm suddenly in agreement with Goodwin with the "people your age' comment... LOL.
 
However, back on topic, now that my "old" brain has realized that it would have just be the   1980's - I couldn't see the person they took the knife off of, but the guy that was laying there earilier, I think the one Eko killed, looked to be about the same age as Goodwin - perhaps they were military when they were dropped off.  IF that knife was one of the few ways you had of protecting yourself, you'd take very good care of it... cleaning it, etc.  That could account for it's "shiny, new" state...

How old did Goodwin Look to everyone else?  To me he looked in his mid-thirties.  Which i guess could MAYBE have had him military 20 years ago.  
 
So has he been here since his training days? Or his he a "new" islander?
 
This is getting really confusing because i think there's about 5 different sets of others.
 
The psychiatrist people from the hatch movie
The others with Goodwin and Ethan
The others who whisper
Others from the Black Rock
The others who originally sent out the number signal from the island who could fall into any of the above categories.
 
AHHH *so confused*

Brett Cullen, the guy who plays Goodwin, is 49 - so he could have easily been in the military 20 years ago...
