The newsletter was similar to the Stars and Stripes newspaper in many ways, except that instead of being a daily publication, it was either monthly, bi-monthly, or weekly (it’s been way too long; I can’t remember for sure). Another feature that distinguished it from Stars and Stripes was its letters section, or commentary section. Many writers extolled the virtues of their particular branches of service in comparison with the other branches, and staunch opinions that launched arguments were the order of the day. Due to its pre-internet age, the submissions had to be mailed in to the publisher’s offices, so there was lag time between the banter.~ less

Men who are drafted call the Ukrainian soliders to find out how to surrender, they don't want to fight and die. The pipeline that was sabotaged, I read, can't be repaired. I think he has lost his mind.

There were tanks and fighter jets that really impressed Trump and when he got back to Washington he told his generals that he wanted the biggest, grandest military style parade ever for July 4th. But he said "Look, I don’t want any wounded guys in the parade" then he added that at Bestiille there had been several formations of injured veterans, including wheelchair-bound soldiers who had lost limbs in battle and he didn't want that because it would make him look bad. I think that is a horrible way for a Commander In Chief to think. Cheers! https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/08/15/inside-the-war-between-trump-and-his-generals less

At that time no one knew who or what that meant but they do now. The Wolverines are a collection of highly trained volunteer fighters from around the world. Before they start their training the Wolverines are required to watch the movie Red Dawn for inspiration. Cheers and happy weekend!

They took Zelenskyy's offer and played their hearts out in a bomb shelter in Kyiv. I think it was a smart tactical move by Zelenskyy. Included a link to more info.
