Why Democrats Hate Hegseth

February 17, 2025 by Don Surber

Democrats may have lost the military. In his first term, the four stars kept Trump from being the actual commander-in-chief blocking him with Milley, Mattis and Marx leading the way.

February 14, 2025 by Rob Croskery

Ray DiLorenzo: My Comments on the DC Crash

February 5, 2025 by Ray DiLorenzo

As a career pilot for over 50 years, I looked at the reports of the collision  between an Army helo and a passenger jet on Wednesday night and guessed that it was a check ride. That is, a flight examination.  It was later reported that it was indeed a check ride.

In the 24-hour news cycle, everyone wants to play the blame game. It is not just the corrupt media that plays this game. Government agencies, media, and even senior “leaders” in the military are all active participants.

June 11, 2025January 25, 2025 by David T. Cloft

In a long-overdue act of justice, the decision to reinstate military members discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine—with full back pay—is a step toward restoring honor to those who stood firm in their convictions.

Discrimination, Entitlement, Inequality is Foundering

January 23, 2025January 23, 2025 by Art Cole

DEI is currently being thrown overboard in corporate boardrooms, federal agencies, and academia. For the military I would submit it’s a feel good program that forces conformity and seriously degrades unit cohesiveness and war fighting skills.

Open Letter to the President of these United States

January 24, 2025January 22, 2025 by Mike Ford

While we applaud President Trump’s decision to engage the U.S Military in border security operations, we need to make sure we use the right units to do this. Even as a Paratrooper, I realize that the 82nd Airborne Division is not always the correct solution.
