Being a ground pounder with many miles under me on aerodromes I'm blaming the firetruck driver, many times I have been cleared to cross, and many times with a jet on final. Nothing beats an eyeball looking down the active before crossing after getting clearance. A few of those times I had a jet hooked to my uke getting clearance to cross.

AMARC is pulling a donor vertical now.

Second ship sunk by a nuclear sub, the RN sunk the Argentine cruiser Gen Belgrano which was the former USS Phoenix which survived the Pearl Harbor attack. First one for the US Navy since WW2. I wonder if there were any survivors, they are a long way from any friends

Does this mean that Kuwait has to buy us three new builds coming off the line in St Louis

Gen Douglas MacArthur got a MOH just by escaping Corregidor so not having himself be taken prisoner like his whole command by the Japanese. I'm sure FDR did it just to get some good out of a disaster.

The blame all goes to Americans who buy the cartels product.

We lost a load of F-4's also. It was not a mx friendly airplane.

Are Airlines that that still fly into Cuba able to tank fuel into Havana or stop do a fuel stop at Puerto Rico and just do an ops stop in Havana?

https://youtu.be/uPre7hNxqj0?si=pLKkX-rJUBxXiwMQ My wife saw this and asked me WTF , how can a USAF O5 be this stupid? Back in the day before smart phones and body cams Senior leadership would be able to do damage control having an officer being a dumb ass with the local police. Now after watching the whole thing and her having the inability to STFU they found a large amount cash in the car. Now I'm thinking she is helping her financial situation from skimming off the inventory from the base pharmacy. You can guarantee every Airman in the USAF has saw this and she is a fine example of not what to be.

Maybe we are over thinking about this. Maybe Xi is looking for a General that will tell him amphibious warfare is easy and he can get it done.

Out breeding white Europeans, white chicks have forgotten what their number responsibility is

My speculation the US will negotiate a new SOFA with Denmark in Greenland similar to the agreement with the Marshall Islands, not being familiar with the social construct of Greenland, how much of the population is really tied to a Danish identity. In WW2 Denmark fell to the Wehrmacht in 6 hours and a Danish diplomat Henrik Kaufmann gave Greenland control to the Allies , since Denmark at this time was Axis control he was immediately fired since he had no permission to do this. Is it time to fully open Keflavik, I was there when the USSR collapsed and we ended up with no mission.

the Medicare fraud in MN which is a percentage of our GDP pisses me off

Iran is not Afghanistan, when Khomeini came to power, he had overwhelming support of Iranian college educated young women who believed him. Sound familiar? Back in the 70s I had a discussion with my cousin who was a young female at the time who supported Khomeini who just dismissed me. Sound familiar again. Before this under the Shah it was progressive secular society. The Shah's secret police were heavy handed with the Islamists who wanted a theocracy and our own CIA didn't make many friends due to us wanting to keep our listening stations along the shared border with USSR. Maybe this time we can get it right.

I guess he will be a guest of my neighboring town of Florence ATX.
