"That’s where the problems exist, that’s where nations have food insecurity ... where we train at, where we have our capitals at. Everything is in the land domain.”

Take note Marine Corps. We arrive by sea but we fight on land!

International Sniper Competition 2022

Team 22 represents the 10th Mountain Division during the International Sniper Competition 2022, April 6, 2022, on Fort Benning, G.A.

Not only were their shooting abilities tested on their rifles and pistols, at both stationary and moving targets, but they also had to demonstrate their ability to maintain information under stress and their ability to communicate as a team.

PLA tank recovery vehicle

Wow. The Chinese put into service a new light tank, recovery vehicle and I've been told - new command vehicle before the US Army got its first airborne tank into service.

The Chinese Z-20 looks bigger than the UH-60

A reader made the comment and I dismissed it at first but circling back the Z-20 does indeed look bigger than the UH-60. Anyone have good info on the size comparison?

China is churning out short/medium range ballistic missiles

This is what they're showing. Wonder how many they have that we're not seeing. Question. If we're within their engagement zone and they're firing from their own shores...would we DARE attack forces on their own soil? If we did what would be the unforeseen knock on effects?

I missed this. They're going with a smaller RWS on the ACV

 

Kongsberg has done a rebranding of their line. They've gone from MCT to RT in nomenclature and in doing so they went with the smaller RWS for the ACV. Ya'll probably already sussed that out but I missed it. On point now.

Now Zelensky wants our inventory of HIMARS?

Someone needs to step up and tell this dude enough is enough. We're not gonna jeopardize our war stocks to prop him up. We have a country to defend too.  As far as Nicholas is concerned that's more HIMARS than the British....Hell NATO has in service! The number of warheads is borderline crazy!  This beyond over the top.  This is circling the moon.

The food crisis is coming...this is why the sanctions WILL NOT WORK!

Let's be real for a second.

Essentials are essentials.  

Food is an essential.  The embargo of Russian oil is NOTHING.  The real test won't come in Europe. The real test will come in the rest of the world when it comes to food.

Certain regions and countries are totally exposed to the export of grain from Ukraine/Russia.

I've read reports that Russian cargo ships are hauling out of Ukraine ENORMOUS supplies of wheat.  Furthermore those reports indicate that backdoor communications are being made with Turkey to seize those ships.

Put that aside for a moment.

Russian power won't come in the form of its petro economy.  Russia's real power will rest in its agricultural economy. 

I've shouted that the State Dept and others should be working overtime to shut this thing down.

No one is listening.

They will soon.  The fuel crisis is real.  The economic pain worldwide is real.  The elite have so far been successful in distracting the masses.  This won't last forever.

When empty store shelves become commonplace in the US for basic food items then you'll see a howl from hell demanding action.

When that happens the US military won't be able to make a few flights to Europe to pick up items that should have been allowed entry into the US anyway.

When that happens someone will have to decide if ANOTHER war is worth it or is it better to use some old fashioned diplomacy to solve the crisis.

One thing is certain.  We're seeing the failure of worldwide institutions.  From the US, to the EU, to the UN, all we're seeing is failure.
