25th ID Jungle Course...

From capsizing a Zodiac, swimming downstream with a rucksack, to setting up then traversing a body of water on a rope bridge… #Jungle students are continually honing their skillsets.

USV Ranger doing work...

 

See the game-changing, cross-domain, cross-service concepts the Strategic Capabilities Office and @USNavy are rapidly developing: an SM-6 launched from a modular launcher off of USV Ranger. Such innovation drives the future of joint capabilities. #DoDInnovates pic.twitter.com/yCG57lFcNW

101st conducts air assault training...side note...is it time to convert them to being pure light fighters instead of air assault?

Note. The 18th Airborne Corps definitely has a pecking order. 82nd, then 10th Mtn and finally the 101st. The main problem for the 101st? Helicopters just aren't strategically mobile. 

I wonder if the Army shouldn't do one of two things. Either dump the Air Assault label attached them (well that's a DEFINITE thing they need to do regardless) and (1) convert them fully to an airborne unit or (2) convert them fully to being light fighters. Air Assault is so widespread in the Army now that's its hardly unique....devoting an entire division to a task that is "common" seems a waste. 

Personally I lean toward making them light fighters but I don't think it'll happen.

Last week the Screaming Eagles 🦅 of the @101stAASLTDIV conducted a MASSIVE 30-helicopter 🚁 air assault on @FortCampbell.

Dome shaped homes are the future for hurricane proofing

Was kicking us around with my boys tonight. Regulation should be put in place that you can't build on the coast of Louisiana unless you are building the dome shaped home. 

Dome shaped homes are the most effective form of housing when it comes to a natural disaster. They've been proving to survive tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes. 

It'll be an unusual sight to see but while I despise regulation we should normalize dome shaped homes for the future.

Tell me where I'm wrong.

Note. I'm trying blogging from my phone to see how it works if it's just plain terrible let me know.
