Determined to kill or capture a murderous Mekong River drug lord, China’s security forces considered a tactic they’d never tried before: calling a drone strike on his remote hideaway deep in the hills of Myanmar. The attack didn’t happen — the man was later captured and brought to China for trial — but the fact [...]

 It’s OK to evangelize. But it’s not OK to proselytize. That’s what the Pentagon said Thursday, attempting to clarify its position on religious speech in uniform as controversy swirled up around press reports over possible prosecutions of troops for sharing their faith. Now we are getting into a really sticky area when the government begins [...]

  We always attempt to do a post on memorial day in order to remind you of the job that our military has to accomplish. Remember that as you read this there are troops overseas who are serving in conditions so filthy that you won’t be able to imagine. They are not going to be [...]

  The new President of North Korea has been making waves lately with his propaganda and rhetoric. He has certainly caused a stir in the rest of the world but I am concerned that he may be going out too far on thin ice. He has raised the threat of a nuclear exchange with the [...]

One of the worst jobs in the world is being an enlisted troop in the US military. This is according to a web site called CareerCast.com. Personally I can’t agree with them more.

 North Korea has 70 submarines while South Korea has 10, according to Seoul’s Defense Ministry. The most menacing threats from the North’s navy are small submarines that would deposit commando raiders along the South Korean coast, said John Pike, head of the Globalsecurity.org think tank. Now this would certainly be a reason for concern, however [...]

   The advantage of using Special Forces or Spec Ops troops would certainly go to North Korea in the event of a war but I don’t believe that it would give them enough of an advantage to win the war. Experts believe guerrilla warfare would be the North’s most viable strategy in the event of [...]

North Korea provided a chilling reminder of what its artillery is capable of when it showered a front-line South Korean island with shells, killing four people in November 2010 and underscoring the threat that its artillery troops pose at the disputed sea border. Their artillery is nothing to take lightly, play with, or sneeze at. [...]
