[July 8, 2023] It was the Fall of 1960. I attended the second grade at a small school in a rural northeast Louisiana town. There I met a few men from the Korean War. The younger of these men helped teach us kids how to throw a spitball, steal a base, and do a proper bunt in baseball. … Read More »
[July 7, 2023] The new and heavily redacted State Department report on our failure in Afghanistan (see link here) shockingly places the responsibility for our withdrawal on the Biden White House.

[July 6, 2023] It is not surprising to those paying attention that the U.S. Government has been using social media platforms to suppress free speech.

[July 3, 2023] As a young man, I trained dogs, earning my way after High School. My job was to pick the best dog for the grueling task of personal bodyguard to “special dignitaries.” Doing so implies, of course, that the best dogs exist.

[July 2, 2023] Here is the bottom line answer. I joined for the adventure. Yep, that’s it.

[June 29, 2023] For those of us who study war, geopolitics, and statesmanship and like to understand why there is such a profound difference in modern-Western thought and all other nation-states, welcome to the world of humans.

[June 26, 2023] Yesterday was the 73rd anniversary of the invasion of South Korea by their communist North Korea: June 25, 1950.

[June 25, 2023] Two days ago, we began hearing that Yevgeny Prigozhin’s Wagner mercenary group had withdrawn from their positions in Ukraine and turned eastward toward Moscow in an alleged attempt to overthrow Vladimir Putin. There is no reliable unclassified confirmation on this, which might be for show or propaganda purposes. Either way, this represents an unexpected and… Read More »
[June 24, 2023] We now know the Titan submersible operated by OceanGate Expeditions experienced a “catastrophic implosion,” killing all five aboard her, including the now-deceased CEO Stockton Rush.
