[December 21, 2022] Lynn Pitts is one of those “go-to” people I like to have on my short list of those who can get-er-done.

It’s more about out thinking… Read More »
[December 20, 2022] Russia is on the verge of losing thousands of soldiers in an upcoming and crushing defeat on the battlefield.

[December 15, 2022] If you are being required to do things that make you weak and ashamed … then stop, don’t do them. One of the critical messages from Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn and Victor E.

[December 13, 2022] Army Vet writes to us today as someone who is deeply patriotic but fears what the U.S. military has become; a shadow of its former self.
