It happens almost every year. I sit on a ridgetop in September, hunting elk somewhere in the Rockies. Flocks of geese fly high overhead in V formation, headed south to their wintering grounds. The honking seems to touch my very soul, and I’m not embarrassed when my eyes begin to tear, even if I’m with someone. But my mood inexplicably changes as I fast-forward to an anticipated day in…

The United States on Tuesday launched strikes against Iran after President Donald Trump said Tehran had shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter in the Strait of Hormuz, deepening doubts about prospects for peace between the two countries. “The mission is a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression,” U.S. Central Command said on X. Trump earlier said the two U.S. pilots involved in the incident were uninjured but that the United States would respond to the attack. The Apache was brought down by a one-way Iranian attack drone, according to a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity. Iran’s Foreign…

Today’s fish finders and marine mapping systems are light-years ahead of those available just a few years ago, and in some cases, the pricing matches those advances. I’ve often simultaneously lamented and laughed at the fact that the mounting bracket for a graph on my most recent boat cost more than the entire electronics setup on my first bass boat in 1996. Of course, there’s a sweet spot of value where the X and Y axis of price and functionality meet.…

John Kennedy, R-La., said during a Tuesday hearing that America has a defense crisis, but Republicans and Democrats do not currently see eye to eye on the amount of funding required to mitigate the challenge.During a Senate Committee on Appropriations hearing about the Department of the…

It seems like once every three or four years a new bait hits the market and the bass, along with the anglers, just can’t get enough of it. But that rise to fame is typically short lived. Like a one-hit wonder on the radio, the most popular bait one year will fade into obscurity the next. The River2Sea Whopper Plopper in 2016 after Chris Lane’s performance on Toledo Bend, the…

Just hours after United States President Donald Trump claimed that a deal with Iran is close, Israel once again attacked Lebanon. The military assault in Lebanon consisted of striking the southern city of Tyre and issuing an evacuation warning that for the first time included the port’s Christian quarter. “We’re in the final throes of what will be a very, very good deal,” Trump said early Tuesday of the ongoing negotiations to end the war that the US and Israel began in late February. The attacks on Lebanon risked renewed fighting with Tehran, a day after exchanges that had threatened a…

The days of brotherly body odor and tossing and turning to the sound of a bunkmate’s late-night calls with his “one and only” may soon be over for junior enlisted service members stationed at Camp Hansen, Japan, as the installation prepares to move service members into new barracks with individual bedrooms.Last week, U.S. Marine Corps and local leaders attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the three new six-story barracks buildings designed to house over 1,000 Marines and sailors near the shores of Kin Bay, according to a spokesperson from the service.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization has launched an experimental Arctic drone task force expanding its military presence in the region. The United States-led bloc has consistently cited an alleged Russian threat to justify its Arctic buildup. According to a report by RT, this latest NATO initiative was unveiled over the weekend as the research vessel Alliance departed La Spezia, Italy, launching Task Force X-Arctic (TFX-Arctic). The experimental unit is set to operate through 2026 and into next year, with the stated aim of demonstrating how uncrewed systems can provide persistent multi-domain situational awareness across the North Atlantic, the Arctic, and the…

Fifty years ago, a U.S. Air Force colonel named John Boyd offered a profound insight into why battles are won or lost. His famous Observe, Orient, Decide, Act — or OODA — Loop described the mental cycle by which combatants, from fighter pilots to generals, assess and react to a constantly changing situation. Those with a faster OODA Loop could exploit opportunities while their befuddled opponents struggled to understand what was going on. Germany crushed France in 1940 largely because of a sluggish French command system that was always one OODA step behind the swift panzer divisions. More recently, OODA…
