James is Eric Prince still involved? I know he changed Blackrock’s name 2 or 3 times and sold most of it.

BlackRock, is an investment firm, Prince's Mercs were called "Blackwater" I made the same mistake, my financially savvy spouse corrected me.

Here's a blurb on the name changes.

"Academi, formerly known as Blackwater and Blackwater Worldwide, is an American private military contractor founded on December 26, 1997, by former Navy SEAL officer Erik Prince. It was renamed Xe Services in 2009, and was again renamed to Academi in 2011, after it was acquired by a group of private investors." from Wikipedia.
