Some landlords of privatized military housing are resuming the utilities billing process for military families. The resumption varies across the service branches, and by installation, and starts with mock billing before actual billing begins. The Air Force appears to be further along in restarting its billing program, based on responses from the other services to Military Times’ questions. The Navy and Marine Corps expect to resume their billing at some locations at some point later this year, with the Marine Corps beginning with housing in Hawaii. At least two privatized housing communities — Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, and Little…

The Army’s focus on the Western Hemisphere is beginning to show in how it’s reorganizing the forces it sends abroad. Earlier this week the Army redesignated a brigade formerly used to advise partner forces in Afghanistan as the Army Security Cooperation Group – South, a Georgia-based unit intended to anchor security cooperation with Panama and lead jungle warfare training under the newly established Western Hemisphere Command. “We are now charged with holding a different line, no longer as Advisors, but as committed jungle warfare experts,” said Col. Keith Benedict, the group’s commander, in a statement. Under the new structure, ASCG-S…

Iran has put its rhetorical “fingers on the trigger,” the regime’s foreign minister warned Wednesday, as the United States revives threats to mount an attack on the Islamic Republic “with speed and violence.” Abbas Araghchi, in a post on X, asserted that Iranian armed forces stand ready “to immediately and powerfully” counter any aggression. He argued that Tehran had learned from last year’s 12-day war with Israel — which also drew in the U.S. — to be primed to deliver a more forceful response. “I do think the threat of a massive Iranian retaliation should be taken seriously,” Ali Vaez,…

At Outdoor Life, we have a long tradition of writing about (and employing) outdoorsmen who manage to survive against all odds. We’ve shared the exploits of well-known legends like bear tracker Ben Lilly and Alaska’s wolfman Frank Glaser, as well as the stories of workaday hunters who just happened to find themselves fighting for their lives on a sheep mountain, on the duck marsh, or in bear country.  See It For more than a century, our print and web pages have been filled with the stories of hunters, trappers, and anglers who had to draw on all their skill and…

This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream.  We were expecting global events to accelerate in 2026, but what we have witnessed throughout the month of January so far has been quite a shock to the system. Everywhere around us, things are going totally haywire. Gold and silver are skyrocketing in price, we are on the verge of a cataclysmic war with Iran, conflict has erupted on the streets of major U.S. cities, and we just keep getting hammered by natural disaster after natural disaster. So many things are happening that I couldn’t…

But after catching the same trophy fish three times in four years from the same spot on Lake Alan Henry, it seems their fates are intertwined. Gomez’s latest brush with the bass occurred on Jan. 22, while he was fishing with a buddy on a public dock — the exact same dock where he caught the big bass in 2023, and again in 2025. Both times, Gomez donated the…

If you’ve ever traveled through the state of South Dakota, you’ve probably noticed the billboards that say, Eat Steak, Wear Real Fur. As someone who grew up in the outdoors and learned to use every animal harvested in as many ways as possible, it baffles me that there are still folks who do not see the “purpose” of hunting and trapping for food and clothing. The public approval ratings for trapping are grossly skewed compared to hunting. According to a 2019…
