[June 10, 2024] This past Saturday, Israeli forces freed four hostages held by Hamas during a raid into a central Gazan “refugee camp.” A New York Post story details much of the operation and its audaciousness and brilliance. Any average person would consider this rescue fantastic news and an excellent example of good overcoming evil. But that was… Read More »
[June 9, 2024] At least we know their priorities. The Pentagon screwed up their PTSD Awareness campaign with their fawning Pride Month posting on social media. In a recent article in FoxNews, it was written that the Department of Defense “made an embarrassing error on social media.” Ya think! FoxNews might have chosen a better adjective. In the… Read More »
[June 8, 2024] One of the advantages of knowing some of the greatest Veterans this nation has ever produced is finding one who is retired from the U.S. Navy and can do a fantastic job as the Emcee. Tom Lamine, a gentleman, Vietnam Veteran and fighter pilot, family man, and all-around great statesman, was that guy. In Atlantic… Read More »
[June 7, 2024] After drinking from the water jug, we drove to a broken “Oklahoma Jack,” sitting silently on an old farmer’s barren land about an hour west of Abilene.

[June 6, 2024] My first actual blind date would be at the end of the school year. I was nervous because this would be a “real” date and my only second date ever. I didn’t know the young lady, so it was a confirmed blind date. Both of us were nervous, or at least I was. It was… Read More »
[June 5, 2024] As the foreign policy failures of the Biden Administration continue to mount and wars continue to flare across the globe, we have the White House issuing a note of condolences over the death of Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi. President Raisi, also known as the “Butcher of Tehran,” is an evil man. Before his recent death… Read More »
[June 4, 2024] We’ve all heard the fable of the Frog and the Scorpion.1 The main lesson from the fable is that people cannot resist hurting others even when it is not in their interests. This is why I believe Jews have a scorpion on their backs. That scorpion is the rabid anti-Semitic faction within the Jew’s own… Read More »
[June 3, 2024] In a recent posting by Simon Whistler on MegaProjects, he gives us a good discussion on a topic that many might think is mundane or just painfully boring. But when there is an impending major catastrophe about to happen in Iraq when the Mosul Dam fails. Estimates of early deaths range from over half a… Read More »
[June 2, 2024] During the early years of the world’s war on terror, a question dogged our military. It was, “How do we end the war in Iraq and Afghanistan?” In other words, we were seriously looking for an exit strategy, and while we found an answer from U.S. diplomats, it was largely inadequate. Similarly, the U.S. is… Read More »
[June 1, 2024] I recently came across an article written by Dick Conoboy and I was taken by his respect for a good friend. The article, titled “Lewis, I Hardly Knew Ye,” is worth reading in its entirety. His friend is Lewis B. Puller, Jr. and if that name is familiar, it should be. Lewis was a Vietnam… Read More »
