   Drones have certainly made a statement in Afghanistan in the war on terror and the military is beginning to capitalize on their usefulness. Their use has been expanded throughout the services and with the Department of Homeland Security and other federal and law enforcement agencies as well. The Navy is inaugurating its first squadron with unmanned [...]

 The face of our global commitments have changed in the last decade or so and the modern requirements placed on the Navy have been more demanding. The Navy has to be able to deploy just about anywhere in the world at just about any time. There are so many potential and existing hot spots out there that [...]

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.

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. [...]
